Charlie Mackesy

An ode to friendship and gentleness full of life wisdom that touched the hearts of millions of readers around the world.

A modern fable for all ages, the wonderful book The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse tries to find answers to universal questions in about a hundred wonderful drawings by the respected British illustrator Charley Mackesy. With its soft, poetic text and rhapsody of black ink and carefully selected color details, this unique book offers inspiration and hope in uncertain times. This is a story about the friendship of a curious boy, a greedy mole full of life, a fox made wary by life, and a wise, gentle horse. Four friends explore the world. He asks himself questions. It goes through storms. They learn to love. The conversations between the boy, the mole, the fox and the horse inspired parents as well as grandparents, comforted children, and lifted the spirits of lonely or grieving people. Four unforgettable characters remind us with hopeful words that we are not alone and are brave enough to continue living life to the fullest even when the going gets tough. The book that will enrich many generations has already become a world phenomenon, and you can read it in Croatian in a translation by the writer Edo Popović.
