Synopsis
Are you feeling a little lost? Got that ‘left in the spare room’ emptiness about you? Mawson does too.
He sits atop his cushion and ponders about baffling things.
The world is a funny place for a curious teddy bear to live in. Friends approach him about their own dilemmas. They seek instant answers that will make everything all right. Mawson does his best. But after he ponders deeply, most things remain for him just as baffling as they were before.
Take a moment out of your day to pawse with him and explore the world. For the many frazzled readers who feel, secretly, much the same, he offers the comfort that the world is a bright place to be.
Review
Thank you to the author for providing me with a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
So this officially my first 5 star book of 2019! Now this is a completely different type of book than I normally review, the book itself is described as a picture book for adults or a book that is intended as a gift between friends that could also be read by a younger audience. The book itself is written by Mawson the bear as he ponders the world around him.
Now the fact that this was a picture book for adults really intrigued me and I’m so glad that I got to see it for myself, not only are the pictures absolutely gorgeous but the whole book itself brings back such nostalgic memories it made it seem sort of comforting, like an old security blanket. The message that Mawson is able to portray as well comes across in such simple terms it really makes you ponder the going on’s in your own life. As it’s such a short read (and looks fantastic) it’s one of those books that you can just have lying around, and one I plan to eagerly show to poor unsuspecting victims who come to visit!
Rating: 5/5
Would I read again: Yes
Would I Recommend: Yes
Would I read another book from this author: Yes
