Very peaceful and gentle nod to those who are missing someone important in their life. Gorgeous illustrations.

I wasn't sure what this was about, it was in my Kindle and so I gave it a go. The art is nice but I'm not the audience for it.

I don't feel like I can rate this, because it took me about two minutes to read and I feel like I understand it at the surface level, but don't understand if it's supposed to have deeper meaning and what that meaning is, if it does.
I don't particularly like the art style, which doesn't help.
This was a World Book Day freebie, in the small pile left I've been meaning to get to after all this time (I stopped getting the freebies a few years back because I tend not to enjoy them, so why keep adding them to the TBR? But I want to at least attempt to read the ones I already have.)
I don't think it's bad, necessarily, but I also don't think it's good, and it doesn't feel right to assign a star rating to a picture book I don't think I grasp the concept of. It was a reading experiment that's taking me longer to review than it did to read in the first place, and has left me vaguely unsettled with the idea that underneath, it might be great, if only I understood it. But is the failure of understanding on my side for not getting it, or on the book's side for failing to present it clearly enough to be understood? Who knows?

So clearly I don’t read picture books very often or maybe this was just too short but I don’t understand
