This book is super pretty, but it doesn’t really give any information or details to the story. You aren’t missing anything if you don’t get the book. It’s more of a collectors item i think.

The illustrations are fantastic, and the short story is a great piece of what is truly a much bigger story. I want more about the Alexander's background and about his mother! We need more please!
