Godfather Death by Sally Nicholls

dark reflective medium-paced

5.0

This cautionary tale reimagines a Brothers Grimm story with hauntingly beautiful illustrations in a warm palette.  A poor fisherman forgoes God and the Devil to choose the most honest man - Death - to be his son's godfather.  This gorgeous, spooky story is good for cultivating familiarity with and respect for death and the hard truths of life.
