This is the cutest thing ever. The most heart warming graphic novel I have ever read. The art style is also so cute.

What make it even more special is how relatable this is. The message in this book is relevant to every single one of us. It’s a great theme.

AMAZING!

Pilu of the Woods is a super cute middle grade graphic novel about Willow, who runs into the forest one day and discovers Pilu, another girl who has run away from home. The novel was beautifully illustrated and I liked how it explored the significance of regulating your emotions without ignoring them. I'm sure younger kids would really like and relate to this graphic novel.

Fun fact: I thought Willow was a boy until I got to the end. I didn't read the synopsis again before reading the book, but still, I don't know how I missed that.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for providing a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Exceptionally created story about life and loss and dealing with feelings of grief. The artwork and message all tied in together beautifully. I cried at the end.
