Originally a French book, this graphic novel tells a magically compelling story of a young girl and her relationship with Jane Ayre and a woodland fox. The stylistics of this book are something I haven't really seen in a graphic novel format before, but really did enjoy. The fine line between capturing the roughness of a scene in an almost sketchbook like manor, while being able to refine them to a point in which they look like finalised illustrations is something I really admired throughout this book. The subtle media choices of primarily pencil with occasional colour really aided in expressing the mood and narrative of the story overall. A wonderfully unique story with wonderfully unique illustrator; who could ask for more?
