Recently, a friend sent me a book. I love receiving books, especially books that others share because they enjoyed them and believe I will too. “The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse” by Charlie Mackesy is like no other. The words speak to your soul in a way that feels like the book was written for each reader with the words they need hear at that moment.
This book takes the reader through simple yet incredibly powerful words. It’s the type of book you will read in one sitting and will revisit often when you need to hear those words again. The illustrations are beautiful. The words are powerful. The combination of the two is simply beautiful.
The message will speak to readers of all ages. The only challenge for younger readers might be the font (handwritten script) but this book would be especially lovely to hear read aloud, whether it’s one page or the entire book.
I’m so grateful my friend shared this beautiful book with me and look forward to revisiting my favorite words and images from this book over and over again.
