The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse

“The truth is everyone is winging it.”

“Most of the old moles
I know wish they had
listened less to their fears and
more to their dreams.”

“Everyone is a bit scared,”
said the horse.
“But we are less scared
together.”

“How do they look so
together and perfect?”
asked the boy (observing swans swimming in the pond).
“There's a lot of frantic paddling
going on beneath,”
said the horse.

This book is so wholesome, and has beautiful illustrations.

A beautiful, charming, sweet, heartfelt book with beautiful illustrations. Maybe a little cloying and simplistic at moments, but sometimes “that's what you need.

Mole may be my spirit animal. “If at first you don't succeed, have some cake.”

And I feel like i need to repeat that the drawings are gorgeous. So if you get a chance to even just glance through this one, do so.

The “children's book” each of us needed/needs/will need.

A sweet book with beautiful illustrations.

This book was deeper than I expected it to be. A lot of people can relate to it as it touches the topic of friendship, loneliness, our fears, and love. Very quick read but charming.

Some great life lessons found within.

Definitely one of my all-time favourites. Adore. Adore. Adore.
