I've never felt so safe and welcome reading a book before.
The narrative is short and simple, which is usually not a personal favourite of mine, but I also appreciate how well the writing invites discussion between readers. It's almost open ended in it's call to point things out, add extra details or questions.
I know that if this book were read with a child, the exchange would be filled with much more than just the words written on the page, and so I can understand and appreciate the simplicity.

The illustrations are absolutely amazing! I was skeptical at first of whether I would enjoy the style. I'm still a little undecided on small details such as the scribble-trees and completely empty skies, but by the end of the book I had mostly come to love it.
The star of the book for me is the diversity an range of people we meet. The incredible amount of clear to see differences, never hidden and always accommodated, both in highlighted perspectives and as background surprises had me smiling constantly.
Where is this super accessible and welcoming waterpark and can I go please?!
