Simon Howe

Join a father and child on a quiet day of wandering, observing, and asking resonant questions. As a father mouse and his child set out to meander through their day, they notice other creatures moving along, too. There's a bright blue bug scuttling down the path, hornets flying through some daisies, even a stick the child drops from a footbridge, carried along by the flowing river. Are they all going home? Did Dad's lost scarf go home, too? Does everyone go home sooner or later? With soft, rounded characters evocative of miniature felt figurines and glowing, gently lit colors, Simon Howe offers a tender story of curiosity and parent-child connection--one whose open-ended questions might invite a broader exploration of loss and other universal themes.

Det er godt at vide, hvor ting er på vej hen... og hvor andre ting er blevet af. En far og et barn er på vej ud at gå en tur. Det var lige det, de havde lyst til. De ser biller vandre forbi, snegle glide af sted og bier og balloner, der flyver hen over dem. Hvor er de alle sammen på vej hen? På vej hjem, måske, siger far. En smuk og blid fortælling om at leve og elske og miste.

Alfie was a fine-looking dog. His coat was sleek and shiny like an otter. His muscles stood out under his skin. He was the son of champions. But Alfie didn't feel like a champion. Alfie was scared of . . . everything Could Alfie ever be bold and brave like other dogs?
