Such a beautiful, meaningful comic about how stories allow us to connect to each other in so many different ways. It was so moving to see Tiến and his mother bond and show their love and understanding for each other through their love of fairy tales. The art style captures the magic and wonder of these stories as well as completely landing each emotion they are meant to evoke. The use of varying colors throughout is such a great choice and makes each part of the story stand out in their own ways, with the shifting reds, blues, and purples. Just an absolute treat for the eyes and the heart.
