“Exploring themes of grief and loss juxtaposed against hope and kindness, Latham’s latest graphic fantasy thrills. Despite its weighty subjects, the masterful visual storytelling and numerous lush, wordless panels keep the pages flying. The softly hued scenes contain vibrant splashes of color, creating a dramatic effect. Haru’s journey and transformation resonate, and the narrative nuance brings accessible complexity to what might, deceptively, appear to be a simple tale. [...] Engaging, uplifting, and beautifully imagined.”
