There's little more magical
Posted on Fri, 13 Sep 2024
There's little more magical than a bedtime story, and you've captured that perfectly here! I insisted on telling/reading bedtime stories to my kids for as many years as I possibly could - never mind them, I loved it!

Great response to the IP, Jenny. It's a special moment when we're allowed up close to another species. There's something reassuring in knowing that they are going about their own lives, and couldn't give a stuff what we're up to or whatever our...
I love the whole concept of this. Labels can help us to understand ourselves or others, but they can also just present us with another set of rules and parameters to conform to. Set the rainbow children free indeed. Anyone should be proud of that...

Delightful. Beautifully drawn characters, great atmosphere, wit and a dose of cataclysmic despair. Thoroughly enjoyed this.
