Why read it?
1 author picked Alphonse, That Is Not Ok to Do! as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I would highly recommend any of Daisy Hirst’s books. To me Daisy Hirst’s books have both the ease and the force of natural phenomenon. They are like a gust of wind, rain, or sunshine. Immaculate expressions of the child’s experience. A seamless flow through the ordinary beauty of the surroundings, the thoughts and the emotions of the child. They represent the joy of creativity and play alongside the feelings of confusion, loneliness or guilt. Simply put, they are brilliant!
From Maria's list on beyond good and bad, right and wrong.
