"The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse" [book by Charlie Mackesy]

Greetings all!

Do you read children’s books? I just finished “The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse” by Charlie Mackesy and absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this book. It is definitely going on my re-read list, and I hope you read it too. 

This is a gorgeously illustrated story for all ages about four unlikely friends and an extraordinary friendship. Profound and lovely, touching and funny – every single message resonated with me on some level. Books like this, with words of hope, love, kindness, and acceptance, make our world a better and brighter place.

Here are some of my favorite Charlie Mackesy’s illustrations from his Instagram account, some of which are featured in the book.






I just learned there is an animated short film based on the book, and it looks good!

What did you think? Drop me a line! Be kind to yourself and to others, and eat some cake!
