Take a trippy surreal journey through a day in the life of a child at play and explore what it feels like when you are the big boss in your own little sandpit, and all the things you imagine and see are your creations, yours to guide and nurture as your mind fills the boring everyday world with a zillion amazing things.
What would it be like if you could create your own little world?
What would you build? Who would live in it? Would you build a world filled with plants and animals? Or cars and cities?
The journey is explored with dream-like text and surreal but utterly wonderful illustrations, showing the importance of learning through play in a young child's life.
Quite something this, hugely original and fun.
Sum this book up in a sentence: A surreal and daydreamy exploration of the mind of a child, visually rich and beautifully described.
"My Magic" by Gaia Guasti and Simona Mulazzani is out on 2nd May 2019, published by Ragged Bears Publishing (kindly supplied for review).
