Jon McNaught is so good at the quiet passage of time! The muted colors, the repeating patterns, the pocket-size, and how he structures the frames and pages all make for a charming and very atmospheric story. I really loved the four wildlife guides at the end. Best. Loveliest.

I discovered Nobrow Press thanks to my cousin, while I was on holiday in London. Nobrow Press is great, I wish *I* was Nobrow Press. This is a very short book, with very few words, being a sort of visual-plus-sound-effects snapshot of an English suburb, at sunset. It's quite lovely and somewhat zen. At the end there are four pages of a "Wildlife Field Guide" which made me go through the book again looking for all the illustrated animals. (Hint: I'm pretty sure many of them do not appear, except in the Guide). Lovely lovely lovely and I'll keep an eye out for more by Jon McNaught.
