About this deal

The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, and the Horse isn’t as much a story as it is a book of advice, encouragement, and lessons accompanied by whimsical hand-drawn illustrations. The advice and lessons are beautiful and meaningful, and the entire book is a genuinely heartfelt experience. Discover the very special book that has captured the hearts of millions of readers all over the world.

I wish I could dislike it, because I have a very cold and mean soul and it would be very on brand for me to hate something that Chris Evans, Captain America himself, called the most beautiful book/Christmas gift possible and the marketing copy calls “hope in uncertain times.” It is impossible not to like this book. It’s entirely made up of charming illustrations and great handwriting and beautiful sentences and jokes about cake. It gives you zero chance to dislike it. Enter the world of Charlie's four unlikely friends, discover their story and their most important life lessons. The boy, the mole, the fox and the horse have been shared millions of times online - perhaps you've seen them? They've also been recreated by children in schools and hung on hospital walls. They sometimes even appear on lamp posts and on cafe and bookshop windows. Perhaps you saw the boy and mole on the Comic Relief T-shirt, Love Wins?What is the bravest thing you've ever said? asked the boy. 'Help,' said the horse. 'Asking for help isn't giving up,' said the horse. 'It's refusing to give up" It’s soothing and beautiful without being sappy; it’s prescriptive but never bossy. – THE NEW YORK TIMES

Mae'r addasiad Cymraeg o un o'r llyfrau a werthwyd fwyaf yn 2019-20, The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse yn stori am gyfeillgarwch, caredigrwydd a thosturi rhwng y pedwar ffrind annhebygol yma wrth iddynt ddatgelu rhai o wersi pwysicaf bywyd. when i first saw this title and cover, i said AWWWWW! and then, over the holiday season, so many people were praising this book in print and in person, i knew i needed to get a copy for myself. OR, to get a copy for greg because - fox - and read it before gifting it to him. because i am a monster. a quiet, meaningful collection of comforting thoughts and lovely art. not exactly the most profound of sentiments, but i feel like, if read at the right moment, it really could be quite impactful. A wiki walk can be as refreshing to the mind as a walk through nature in this completely overrated real life outside books: This is the kind of book that you read in 20 minutes and then immediately hand to someone else, who then wants to lend your copy to someone but can’t because they aren’t a monster and instead buys 10 copies to keep on hand as gifts that seem personal but really aren’t.

This book spoke to me. From the beautiful words and gorgeous illustrations, it was a peaceful and heart warming experience. The BBC One film, releasing on Christmas day will adapt Charlie's soothing drawings into full colour, giving a lovely new dimension to the story. The cast is set to include Tom Hollander as The Mole, Idris Elba as The Fox, Gabriel Byrne as The Horse and newcomer Jude Nicoll as The Boy. The story is so simple, beautiful, and adorned with such gorgeous phraseology and meaningful words that will blow your mind for its simplicity and beauty. The wonderful illustrations are a feast for the eyes and match the dialogue between these 4 adorable characters - perfectly. Best to list some of my favourite quotes that add so much to the meaning of life. I'm sure you will have a list too....
