What a gorgeous book! 3 in 1 as well with a beautifully crafted story within story, parallels, and even the forbidden pet love story thrown in! I don't often comment but this is just unique and heart warming. The art style is fabulous and deceivingly simple. i could have happily saved every single panel. The details are exquisite. A favourite to revisit for giggles and uwus!
ard relate with the jam thing. it happened to me too. i could not manage with silent tears though, i kept running between the bathroom and kitchen, half screaming/half crying!
Yo same happened with me, my mother like splattered all that chilli sauce instead of jam. I did not know that and like took a bite really confidently, and then it struck me. I was in class and couldn't scream either because you know, but me having the most sensitive tongue I had could NOT bear it. Later i want to the infirmary and was like *-I need all ice you have rn*
