dark
a freaking weird little picture book. I can't imagine most children would like this or get it...it's more like a picture book, but for adults. cataloging this for the local library was a huge pain, trying to figure out where to shelve it. If you're an adult who likes weird and likes picture book art, this might be for you. Please read it yourself before trying to read to any kids, though.

- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

Gives us no sign
That presently it will die."
"a cicada shell
it sang itself
utterly away."

Perks of working in a primary school: you get to read random, kind of depressing little picture books.
