5.0
La edición es preciosa, cuidadísima, pero me ha dejado una tristeza enorme. Con lo contento que me había levantado yo hoy.

olga lives in her kiosk. every day she looks after her customers and dreams of faraway places. until one day, a series of absurd events turns her world upside down and olga finds herself in an unexpected journey.
i will always have a soft spot for publishers like gecko/nobrow press. their illustrations are always SO beautiful and if you are familiar with the type of books that they normally publish, they are always versatile with a passion to inspire, inform and surprise their readers.
as for this book, there were a few concerns about olga’s representation of a plump woman who seems to be stuck in the kiosk all her life and not taking care of herself. however, i think its all about how readers would see it - yes, olga is plump but she accepts the way she is, was happy that she can finally walk around, living in the moment and living her best life while spreading kindness. most importantly, her customers love her for who she is too.
in overall, it is such a fun read and if its concerning, i guess its best for an adult to accompany and read together with their child in order to ensure that positives messages are spread across instead of the negatives.

Graphic novel singkat tapi makna nya dalam tentang Olga pemilik Kios K di tengah kota Latvia, menghabiskan seluruh hidup nya di dalam kios nya. Illustrasi cakep sama dengan short movie nya, dan tentu saja mengandung banyak makna tentang esensi hidup olga yg berkubang seluruh hidup nya dengan bad habit nya.

Olga savu ievērojamo apmēru dēļ netiek ārā no savas darba vietas. Iestrēgusi viņa ir gan reāli kioskā, gan ar prātu savos neizpildāmajos sapņos. Taču reiz viss mainās un Olgai izdodas īstenot savus sapņus ļoti neparastā veidā. Mums ar trīs gadu svecu bērnu ļoti patika šī grāmata un tā šobrīd ir viena no dažām aktuālajām grāmatām, kuras ik vakaru pēc bērna paša iniciatīvas tiek pārlasītas.
