Sprite and the Gardener

Sobbing tears of joy. This book is cute, sweet, and charming. It’s absolutely full of joy. Beautifully integrated, but incredibly subtle, themes of acceptance for both sprites and people. The book is incredibly low tension and lacks a clear plot with obstacles to overcome, the book doesn’t have a ‘bad guy’. To me, this is a plus, but some might find it boring. The art is soft and whimsical, a joy to look at. There is a vast array of colors, not strictly pastels, but even the brighter colors have a cohesive pastel vibe to them.
