After the Fall (How Humpty Dumpty Got Back Up Again) by Dan Santat

4.0

This book is gaining some Caldecott buzz and true, the illustrations are amazing. There are a couple of pages in particular where they tell the story better than the words. However, the story is your typical "don't let fear keep you from greatness" type of stories. It almost felt cliched. Yet this book had more heart than I expected; after all, Humpty Dumpty's story is usually told in comedic fashion.
