Satoshi Kitamura’s genius is on display in this perfect little picture book.

Lily loves to go for a walk with Nicky, her little dog. Even when they stay out late, she’s not scared because Nicky is there with her. As Lily does the shopping, readers see both what she sees and what Nicky sees, and they’re very different.

For Nicky there are scary things everywhere! To him, a postbox is a monster, there’s another monster in the canal, and a whole pack of them in the bins, even tucked up in his basket he manages to give himself a scare.

Children will love laughing at Nicky’s visions and the gap between his experience and Lily’s, and it will also serve to take scariness out of their own world. The mix of real and surreal is beautifully done, the illustrations glow, and this is a delightful book for adults and children to share with so much to talk about.
