So short but so lovely! I guess the story is what some people would consider a bit on the darker side, but overall it felt like a hug. Toadling was just so endearing!
Moderate: Death, Physical abuse, Suicide, Murder, and Abandonment
Minor: Animal cruelty, Body horror, Confinement, Cursing, and Blood
There is some content that people could be sensitive to but overall it is very light and barely does more than mention the previously listed contents. I will say, as someone who is EXTREMELY sensitive to animal death/violence, it kind of goes out of the way to say that the animal lived and was ultimately okay. It also gives absolutely zero detail about what actually happened.
