## Description

Tales from the Inner City : Tan, Shaun, Tan, Shaun: desertcart.in: Books

Review: This book, like all of Shaun Tan's work, is full of breathtakingly beautiful illustrations, and profound writing. It offers a sensitive portrayal of our complex relationships with animals and the habitats we share. Would highly recommend (I would say it's best suited for ages 12 and up--some of the topics are a little heavy and more abstract).
Review: Beautifully written and crafted.

I love Shaun's work, but this is my favourite to date. I loved Rules of Summer but was personally a bit disappointed by The Rabbits and Cicada (find it hard to know what to expect just from looking online) but this was incredible. Loads of content, incredible illustrations and great accompanying stories. Can't recommend more highly if you're a fan of his work.
