this was so sad? my goodness. he ate her childhood! i loved this, i was so hyped to see a book centering the callaloo plant and this was a great story and the loose rapunzel retelling was done in a way i really liked— the braiding to find lou’s way home made me emotional! the illustrations are beyond glorious, i gasped at a couple of the large illustrations of the winding landscape between somewhere and nowhere. yay caribbean picture books :))
