Book Review: The Journey by James Norbury
The Journey
by
James Norbury
Imprint: Michael Joseph
My review of The Journey: Big Panda and Tiny Dragon
The Journey is not aimed at one particular age group, its appeal is all-inclusive.
For children it's an exciting adventure story. For adults it is a story of friendship, overcoming adversity, being in the moment, acceptance, gratitude and weathering life's storms.
The Journey is a beautiful book that would make a precious gift for both child and adult. Charmingly presented in hardcover with gold foil features and a ribbon bookmark. The illustrations move from black and white sketches to colour water washes to tie in with the mood of the story.
This is the second book in the Big Panda and Tiny Dragon series and I'm eager to get the first.
My rating 5/5 🐼🐉🐼🐉🐼
