Another short and sweet graphic novel with a lovely story and beautiful messaging ✨

There was such important messages in this story. It showed how sometimes a task might be too much, and we don't have to do things alone - it's okay to ask for help! Working together can be so rewarding and this was definitely the case in this story.

“Oh, I wonder... I was trying to fix the whole thing at once... But maybe it needs to be done one step at a time? I can do this... I can do this!!”

~I received a copy from netgalley~
This was SUCH a cute graphic novel! I especially loved the art and all of the colors used in it. This was such a cute magical book about a sprite helping a gardener grow their mom's old garden. This would be such a cute little short movie too, I bet.

The sprite and the gardener is a book well worth it's five star review, with breathtaking art and a delightful story I can not recommend this book enough for those looking for sweet treat after a long day!

After reading this book, you just might find yourself taking shovel to earth and starting your very own garden (just be on the look out for friendly winged helpers who may be hiding in the leaves, they're a little shy!)

I’ve been eyeing up this graphic novel for the longest time due to a massive love of everything OniPress publishes. When NetGalley approved my request for it i nearly screamed, and god I wasn’t disappointed with it!!! So beautiful and literally now one of my favourite Graphic Novels to date. Sweet, whimsical, and a piece that I will 100% be adding to my physical collection!!

This is such a cute comic about fairies and humans working together to achieve a goal whilst gaining new friends. I also really love the palette used in this comic. It adds flavor to the whole story.

If anyone needs a light and stress-free graphic novel, this book is it.

Thank you to Netgalley for providing the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
