Teen Book Review: The Boy, The Mole, The Fox, and The Horse

The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse by Charlie Mackesy is not a book you would typically expect to find in the hands of a teenager, but it is as beautiful as it is simplistic, and it is entirely universal. Whether just learning to read or having read for over 50 years, Mackesy presents the most important questions considered in our world today in the eyes of a curious boy, a hungry mole, a weary fox, and a wise horse. And of course, amongst 100 colored or black and white drawings, we find a little bit of discussion about cake.
