The Land of Uhlowhn ("Alone") is more than a picture book; it is the debut of artist/author Rachel Seratte. Combining fantasy and philosophy with brilliantly colorful artwork, each page stands alone but also leads the reader on a journey through emotions and observations of life. The protagonist, Tiger, is joined by a variety of companions - Snail, crows, hedgehogs, and more. The illustrations are combined with rhyming couplets, hand drawn by Seratte. This visually stunning calligraphy describes the situations we all experience and the feelings evoked thereby. Readers will enjoy exploring the complex images hidden in the marginalia, revealing artistic elements that are echoed in the poetry on each page. This is a book designed to be read more than once and different pages will appeal at different times as the reader finds Tiger's
philosophy mirroring their own.
