This Thing Called Life By Christian Borstlap



Fn be hard to put into words. The book leaves lots of room for discussion and for new discoveries with each reading.



The 411:

I really enjoyed this book. I loved the illustrations but I also liked the easy concept of life on a very basic level but depending on your personal situation the book can be very deep too.   Life is so many things and in just a few words on each page you get that and the message at the end is one that resonated with me. It says "Here's the thing: You can't do life alone. Life is something we do together. All of life is connected and dependent on the rest of life." I am a firm believer in "it takes a village." It does! 

My favorite page is probably the ant page which says that sometimes life is complicated. The book also tells us that life is unpredictable but that all life ends. The message that some things are here for a little while and some only a day leaves this open for so many messages and situations which one of the reasons I loved it! It can be very basic or it can help someone who has lost someone which was what I personally came away with after reading the book.
