One of the most beautiful books I own.
I love that the themes of asking for help and persistence are so seamlessly threaded through the pages. These are two important qualities we need to share with all ages.

I tried explaining to someone born in the 1980s that I had read this book before 1984. It was a confusing concept. 😵💫
