This graphic novel touches on universal themes, such as death, friendship, and love. On surreal adventures, the protagonist encounters a ghost in the house, time travel, snow that bears a striking resemblance to lemon ice cream, and even a meeting with Death. Some panels include dialogue, while others forgo it for a purely visual impact. In either case, the witty and tender narrative injects magic and innocence into a world of danger and wonder, and encourages readers to overcome adversity with humor and a positive frame of mind.
