Finally got a chance to read this beauty.
With no words to guide the story, the artist has a nice way to catch the viewer's attention.
Telling a story just through images is a task which Shaun Tan executes beautifully.
As many, I am sure, must have said before me - I now understand why this book is vehemently recommended.
A must read for those looking to start reading graphic novels.
PS. So lucky to be in a place with a library that has such gorgeous books. So so grateful.
