This book was SO GOOD!!! It was also very emotional 😭😭😭. Brian Selznick never fails to capture me with his storytelling both in words and in pictures. And the fact that his books draw from real-life people and experiences which he properly gives homage to at the end of the story just makes everything all the more meaningful. This story is bound to be one of my all-time favorites. Easily one of my favorite books of 2021. I hope he keeps writing and making these books!
