An amazing, simple little book. For anyone who's mind wanders. Life can seem so bland at times but if you stop and pay attention you'll see 8 billion stories happening all in concert with each other forming this brilliant tapestry we know as the human condition. This book helps remind me that every moment is objectively special in its own unique way.

Visual poetry
Blue Sky Through the Window of a Moving Car is a lovely little collection of comics that reads a bit like poetry. It includes several short stories told in beautifully illustrated panels, each accompanied by a short sentence. The themes focus on finding beauty in the day-to-day and living in the moment, and I truly enjoyed the chill vibes.It’s a book that invites you to slow down and appreciate the little things, perfect for when you are in a contemplative mood. Definitely one to read and revisit whenever you’re looking to be reminded of the simple joys of life.✨ Disclaimer ✨ I received a free copy of this book and this is my honest review.

Poetry in sequential art
I read this courtesy NetGalley and Andrews McMeel. I came into this work by recommendation, but nothing else, so when I actually read this graphic novel, I was amazed. The images tell a series of cohesive stories and the wording is so pure, its poetry. It had me thinking of the quiet moments of life and how it is simple, yet stirring.#BlueSkyThroughtheWindowofaMovingCar #NetGalley

Quick, but thoughtful
This is a lovely book of pictures, but it isn’t really a picture book. It is, as the author intended, a story told in pictures that could have beena movie, but was too expensive to make it that way.Itis almost poetry. But either way, it is a series of short short stories, told in pictures. From stories of thinking what a beautiful morning it is, with the birds singing, and wondering what it all means, to listening to an old man on the bus, tell of his life.The stories are complete, but they are also vignettes, pictures into the soul of the speaker, and then they are gone again, as though you only saw them in passing.Quick, but thoughtful read book.
