Kerry and the Knight of the Forest
by Andi Watson
3.5 stars
This was such a delightful read! I got an arc from the publisher. The illustrations were very well done, especially given that one of the main characters was a stone. Watson did an excellent job conveying emotions through the expressions of its eye.
The end of the story felt a little weak to me, and could have used some fleshing out, but overall the plot was strong and simple. Kerry was super cute and friendly, and I loved how altruistic he was, even though it might have gotten him into some tight spots. It teaches that everyone has good in them, somewhere. There was a line from Kerry that said, “I don’t mean you should put your faith in everyone, only that it’s worth trying to see the best in them.” I think that sums up his character really well, and some of the deeper themes of the story.
