"I ... I don't know. I guess. Sometimes it is easier to stay quiet. People get tired of questions that can't be answered."

'Or scared of the answers they find ...' (pg 14).

Hicotea is an excellent story for all ages! It made me think and it promotes curiosity and the smallest bit of environmental awareness. Of course, the illustrations are bursting with color and cuteness. There's a slight edge of creepiness or, at least, some parts make you feel uncomfortable (like something's not right). That's a hard feeling to capture in artwork/stories.

Anyway, I recommend. c:
