Description
"Lovingly written and painted, this strange and silly book will delight everyone who reads it. The grown-up people who read it may find it confusing. But young people, I think, will understand that in its strangeness and silliness it mirrors our own strange and silly world." Eleanor Davis, author of Stinky and How to Be Happy
is a beautifully painted all-ages graphic novel exploring imagination: its power and its dark side.
