Enjoy this wonderful and heartwarming picture book, with
incredible and uplifting messages!
It's so valuable for these uncertain and troubled times.
Charlie Mackesy's The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse
is one of those books that will steal your heart as you
slowly flip through its gorgeous pages.
Go here to see the video, book and quote images
This book is not like the usual picture book and every page
gives a sense of peace and serenity.
Charlie Mackesy, who has been a cartoonist for the Spectator
and a book illustrator for Oxford University Press.
Charlie’s work features in books, private collections and
public spaces, including Highgate Cemetery in London, in
hospitals, prisons, churches and university colleges around
the UK, and in women’s safe houses around the world.
He says the straightforward, heartfelt conversations between
the characters in The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse
were drawn from, “conversations I’ve had with my friends
about what life really means, what’s important; it was a
way for me to think aloud on paper with words and drawings".
The conversations between the four characters in this book,
have been shared thousands of times online.
Should you walk away with a shrug of your shoulders and the
words "ho-hum" on your lips after reading this book, then it
will be your great loss. Read it again, yet another time.
It's possible to read the same page, during more than one
sitting, and experience different results.
The book isn't a story with a plot, it's a book full of
wisdom and kindness. One powerful life reminder after
another unfolds with few words. The writing and pictures
make the book seem like someone sat down and wrote you a
nice letter.
See the video, the book and its quote images
Share this little treasure, especially with the younger
people in your life. They will learn how it feels to take a
slow, deep breath. This is a book to be read aloud and
shared among generations.
There are no pat answers here, maybe just enough light to
get you moving.
As well as the video, I've added a few image quotes from the
book for you to share with others. Just click on each image
