The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse with text and art by Charlie Mackesy is perfect for these uncertain times. It's like a soft blanket on the first chilly evening of autumn.
From the author's introduction: "This book is for everyone, whether you are eighty or eight ... I'd like it to be one you can dip into anywhere, anytime. Start in the middle if you like. Scribble on it, crease the corners and leave it well thumbed."
In the hands of a different creator, the sentiments could be trite and saccharine. When paired with Mr. Mackesy's âorganicâ art, the humor and sentiment is spot on and comforting. This is a quick read, but don't rush through - take your time and/or re-read to absorb all the positive and comforting thoughts.
