Added this for a reading challenge years ago and just read it since it was short to get it off my TBR list. The e-book formatting wasn't the greatest.

It was an interesting read for sure. A good reminder of how sometimes we need to slow down in life and let our souls catch up to us. I think it's a book that I would definitely go back and read at some point.

Un librito para esos días en que estás demasiado acelerada y necesitas tomarte unos minutos zen. Es relajante.

Short and powerful message about the loss of the soul in this bustling world.

In an ode to slowing down, this [a:Brian Selznick|38120|Brian Selznick|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1201028714p2/38120.jpg]-like combo of text and wordless images posits that our souls move slower than we do, and when we rush around so busy we are actually leaving our souls behind. The author and illustrator lean heavily on the reader to interpret the illustrations and connect them to the text. A meditative and provoking book.

An interesting book to read around the same time as [b:Seek You: A Journey Through American Loneliness|55648627|Seek You A Journey Through American Loneliness|Kristen Radtke|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1604997087l/55648627._SX50_.jpg|79069490] and [b:Several People Are Typing|54468020|Several People Are Typing|Calvin Kasulke|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1627964160l/54468020._SY75_.jpg|85004135].

Nádherný príbeh o duši, čase, strácaní a nachádzaní (sa). Odporúčam!
