An essential picture book - beautifully written and illustrated
This captivating and thought-provoking story is expertly told and charmingly illustrated, with important lessons - subtly delivered, and of benefit to both children and adults alike - about consumerism, materialism, and the value of the things that truly matter in life. Highly accessible, it would make an excellent entry point to discussions with young children about the themes mentioned above. The text and illustrations marry perfectly. It’s a delight!
