This book is so wonderful for people of all ages (infants to age 150 and beyond). Simple, yet profound. Cute photos, too. It was a favorite of my own kids and my students, as well. Everyone should read it & share it!

Reading this book actually jog up my child hood memory, i had this Loa Tzu Speaks story comic book in my grandps place. Always loved the reasoning, and insight. Tho at the time didnt understand many things.
Reading this book, reminded me of that book. Not that the content is similar, but the profoundness of the wording in the simple sense, just so soothing to read. And this book actually reaches out to all ages.
Artisan in the past has said there is sophistication in simplicity, reason being it allows room for pondering. i think this book hits the mark.
If you appreciate deeper things in the simple package,
Must have.

📚Charlie Mackesy – O Menino, a Topeira, a Raposa e o Cavalo 👦🏼🦡🦊🐴
Há alguns meses eu li essa simples e encantadora história, mas dotada de uma profundidade sublime, que irá conquistar os amantes de “O Pequeno Príncipe”.
Na obra de Charlie Mackesy, com adaptação vencedora do Oscar de Melhor Animação em Curta Metragem, produzido pela AppleTv, conhecemos um Menino a procura de respostas, uma Topeira gananciosa, uma Raposa silente e um Cavalo cheio de sabedoria.
Uma história carregada de amor, amizade, medos, e senso de pertencimento! Na narrativa, vemos que até elementos simples, como a mudança de clima, tem um propósito de testificar as mensagens: “Quando as nuvens escuras vierem, continue”.
Com envelopamento infantil, a história está longe de ser apenas para crianças, uma vez que essas ainda estão construindo uma linguagem para compreender questões existenciais.
Sendo cristão, a obra de Macksey está carregada de virtudes e alusões da verdade bíblica. Amo um diálogo entre o Menino e o Cavalo, que remete ao amor e misericórdia de Deus por seus Eleitos:
“Então vocês sabem tudo sobre mim?” perguntou o menino.
“Sim.” disse o cavalo.
“E vocês ainda me amam?”
“Nós te amamos ainda mais”
O trecho em questão me fez pensar na figura da Trindade, uma vez que temos o Cavalo, a Raposa e a Topeira no contexto.
A história segue um fluxo, mas as mensagens podem ser lidas de forma aleatória, e como o próprio autor diz, podemos começar pelo início ou pelo meio do livro.
Aqui vemos que mesmo em meio a dificuldade, ao medo e as fraquezas devemos continuar: “A vida é difícil, mas você é amado” disse o Cavalo!
Aquele que é Amor sempre estará conosco: “Não fui eu que ordenei a você? Seja forte e corajoso! Não se apavore nem desanime, pois o Senhor, o seu Deus, estará com você por onde você andar”. (Josué 1:9).

Easy read. Simple. Full of positive quotes. Short story about friendship and not giving up.
Only negetive was that the font was a little hard to read sometimes.
