What I Read in December

Last month, I almost didn't accomplish my reading goal. Despite getting all of the shopping done early, we still had a lot of events and last-minute things to get done before the holidays. However, I was able to read an excellent book.

This month, I won't be sharing my favorite blog posts because I didn't read a lot of blogs. I'm hoping to catch up on that soon. Well, let's get to my book review.


The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, and the Horse by Charlie Mackesy

This was such a quick read, but it was such a powerful book. The message was amazing, and the images were beautiful. The book was about friendship and kindness. There is a boy who meets a mole, and then they meet a fox. Finally, they meet a horse. One of my favorite parts of the book was when the mole freed the fox from the snare. Despite knowing that the fox could kill him, the mole decided to be kind and trust that the fox wouldn't harm him. The story reminded me of Winnie the Pooh and The Little Prince.  The story is perfect for children and adults. In today's world, this story is so needed.
