Nathaniel's Got the Blues by David L. Heaney

5.0

Nathaniel is an old rat who suffers from a chronic thinking that his life has no meaning anymore.

Everyday he wakes up, he ponders why he feels a certain way. Was it melancholy? Or was he feeling blue? Nathaniel needed answers to why he was feeling down lately.

He was in search of an adventure. He missed his younger life of exploration.
He becomes engrossed with his blue feelings and decides to go out for a walk.

He meets his friend who shares with him a cryptic truth.
Now, Nathaniel is forced to decipher what it means to engage and extract. But does he really understand what his friend's words meant?
