"Charlie Mackesy offers inspiration and hope in uncertain times in this beautiful book based on his famous quartet of characters. The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, and the Horse explores their unlikely friendship and the poignant, universal lessons they learn together. Radiant with Mackesy’s warmth and gentle wit, The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, and the Horse blends hand-written narrative with dozens of drawings, including some of his best-loved illustrations (including “Help,” which has been shared over one million times) and new, never-before-seen material. A modern classic in the vein of The Tao of Pooh, The Alchemist, and The Giving Tree, this charmingly designed keepsake will be treasured for generations to come." --Barnes & Noble website.

Just so so sweet. Really lovely sentiments about friendship and life and loving yourself. Given as a gift to my son from his grandparents.

Pressed by Kaytee Cobb of CR. The next day I saw it at Goodwill! Lovely graphic novel with a moral about life: what's important - be encouraging - kinder to yourself - dare to try - be in the present - be a friend - love. Beautifully drawn and written.
