The Gaiman and McKean team has produced another imaginative, absurd story, with a delightful mishmash of artistic styles and text fonts/placement, but it didn't have quite the same warmth for me as The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish.

Marvelous. Somehow both cheeky/absurd and adorable. I LOVE Dave McKean's art style - not quite like anything else I've ever seen in picture books. The story is surprisingly light in tone for a Neil Gaiman book.
Yay! I found #roll100 book no. 4 at a library branch in my city! It‘s been on my tbr for years and endured being shoved back for other books.

Having a daughter has rekindled my love for children‘s books ♥️ we found this one at the park and thought it was very cute and the artwork is really cool
My husband surprised me with some Neil Gaiman I haven‘t read. 🥰
Finishing up this book, which has been languishing on #MountTBR for nearly a decade, this morning.
Heard the sad news about Taylor Hawkins when I woke up. I‘m speechless. But this panel stood out in light of his passing.
This was an interesting read, elegantly written and beautifully drawn. It‘s about a man reflecting on his childhood. He remembers going to a osteopath to fix his dislocated shoulder and finds out the doctor used to treat Al Capone. It gets a little eerie and the ending is open to interpretation.
A very odd little comic, but one that‘s easy to enjoy, and it helped change the way stories can be told with pictures.

Here I will note 365 books (or as many as I will have before I get tired) that have shaped my taste in literature. No explanations, no reviews. Just the cover of the book.
