'It's a book about many things - love, snow, god, poisoned
sausages...but mostly it's a celebration of storytelling itself.
Strange and wry and funny and beautifully drawn.'

Awards

This is a hugely enjoyable and remarkable book, with much to
discover below the surface.

It’s a whimsical, light-hearted book that reads like the best kind
of bedtime story – a new take on something familiar and much
loved.
*Glasgow Sunday Herald*
There is a pleasing unity to these far-flung stories appearing
alongside one another. Greenberg is clearly fascinated by the
universality of myth.

Timelessly brilliant… Isabel Greenberg is clearly destined to make
a big contribution to British comics.
