Opis

This book is mostly a light hearted, lyrically poetic and yet sometimes solemnly serious fictional fantasy. The main characters are five friends forever. PU Pig is the know-it-all. Larry-on-the-Lamb is a shy sheep who wants to be so ba-a-d. Hoss, the slow Horse is the one who's most trusted, steady and strong. The chicken, Chickadee Dooda, comes from a broken egg. Cowlicko Claire, the cow, is kind of the heroine, here, who always knows what is the right thing to do. These "five friends forever" embark on an unexpected journey together from California to England where they meet other fantasy characters and differing challenges. Along the way they are tested and ultimately each finds their perceived weakness serves to rescue rather than inhibit them in adversity. With the help of unconditional friendship, love and sound thinking they prevail. Each page of story text has a corresponding illustration on the facing page which illuminates the story and showcases the author's unique "art-toonist" style. From successful ad-artist in Oslo, Norway to homeless addict in the streets of Palm Springs to a new life as a recovering addict and a recognized artist, Dwight Storm Halvorsen, the artist and storyteller here, has experienced and overcome the depths and desperation of addiction like few have.
