I received the wonderful 'Felix After the Rain' by Dunja Jogan, published by Tiny Owl. I am so happy to have my own copy. It is a book about grief, worry, and sadness. Felix carries his heavy suitcase of burdens with him always, then one day someone helps him to open the heavy suitcase and release a storm of emotion. The book has a fabulous transition from gloomy, dark spreads to fabulous light, joyful ones when Felix is able to start enjoying life again, and all of the illustrations have a wonderful flowing line.
Such contrast to American publishing. Fearless freedom. It looks like a beautiful book.
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful Wendy, but it is an independent publisher who is prepared to take risks.
