ts a wonder how art and words written on paper can heal you.
This book was Perfect at the time i read this. I love that the illustrations were on point, and relevant to what I'm particularly feeling at the moment.
The Art of Living is a narration of living life to the fullest, embracing your fears but in a way that is so very interactive. I love how the author had narrated the story and arranged the artwork, as we can read it as how we want it without thinking too much of the technicalities, which I think was super smart of him. Its a read that you can actually flip through whenever, and take in the full-coloured drawings and the message that the author intended to send.
Its not a book that tells you what to do or dictates how to live your life. I love books like this, where its a collection of thoughts that had been narrated out to be very relatable. It integrates the four seasons in the drawings and I liked how the artwork is super interactive in a way that you will find yourself enamored and engrossed in the book.
Overall, its a read that had comforted me whilst I was reading this. If you actually found this book anywhere, flip through it and take in on the message that it had sent. Its a book that you can read at any time without rush and one that I appreciate a lot.
Biggest thank you to Times Reads for gifting me this copy!
