I’d heard so much about this book but never really knew what to expect. Then I discovered I could get the ebook through my library, and I loved it. This story is calming and grounding, and it explores why every person is important and why they matter, even if they feel like they don’t. It’s a great book to gift someone who may be struggling with their mental health or sense of purpose.
The illustrations also reminded me a lot of those in Winnie the Pooh, and a lot of this story relies on or is developed through visual literacy.
