5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and Poignant, a Tender Story Shared Through Wonderful Illustrations
Beautiful and poignant, this story is shared through illustrations and the thoughts of one man and his dog as their journeys take them through these pandemic days when life has been turned upside down. Illustrated by Luke Adam Hawker, and with writing by Marianne Laidlaw, this shares the worries as well as the beauty of these days. The NYC dwellers who gathered each day to applaud the ever-weary health care workers, even while wondering how long this will last, when it will be over. How it changed our world, and the way we see it. The panic as grocery store shelves were quickly depleted, the confusion on how to maneuver through these days, this new way of life.‘Quiet, where once there was an orchestra of noise. The busiest of places stood empty and still. Normal things began to feel strange. Strange things began to feel normal.’Simple, if occasionally profound moments are shared. Walking in the rain in side-by-side illustrations of the man and his dog walking as the rain pours down. In the first illustration, the man is holding an umbrella over himself. ’In slowing down, we woke up… On the next page, he is shown holding the umbrella over his dog - ’to the most important things of all.’A lovely book that shares the frustrations of being separated from those we love, as well as a new appreciation for those we love and have been separated from during this time, the perceptions gained over the last two years, and a new appreciation and hope for the days ahead.

Never judge a boom by its cover. I thought the story would be different because of the cover, but it’s still a lovely story. I appreciate the art and the author, although it’s not the my favorite book in the world. It’s okay.
Uplifting - highly recommend

I stumbled upon it at a bookstore, flipped through it a little bit and thought it looked cute - came back home and found it on Amazon for half the price so I decided to go for it. I have zero regrets. The art throughout is really beautiful but it’s the storyline what captured me. You could say it’s a little corny, but corny can be a great thing. Corny is good for the soul sometimes. It’s the story of one man living through the pandemic but it’s actually the story of all of us living through the pandemic. In a sense, it makes you feel less alone by making you aware you are part of a collective experience. It’s an uplifting “we’re all in this together” book. All in all, beautiful drawings and beautiful message.
