in the first place I wanted to show you this book because of the beautiful cover paint by mira nameth. it’s certainly not this type of cover which puts you straight into shock, so that the publisher can be sure that you don’t walk by ignoring it. but, sometimes there is no need for color explosions. instead of being all glittery and neon, this book keeps its simple and and that’s what makes it so special. and since a book is certainly about reading,  too, I can assure you that it is worth it (just finished it last week). instead of summing it up, I just leave you with a quote from john clare…
