Glow by Ross Morgan


Glow by Ross Morgan

There is a path I walk with care.
There is a shadow that follows me there.
There is a place, a secret I keep,
where something special is buried down deep …

A sumptuously illustrated and immersive picture book that speaks to memory, shared moments, and love beyond and between worlds.

 

Resonating with the works of Shaun Tan and Brian Selznick, beautifully produced and published in large format, exploring themes of loss, family, solace and mystery 

 

Ross Morgan's exquisist art and story are inspired by personal loss and coming to terms with grief.  In the rural metal scrap yard, a girl and her dog explore mountains of metal scrap together searchign for treasures, kept on a shelf in her late grandfather's workshop.  She discovers a mechanical key and mystically, magically, a little glowing object appears, floats up and beyond.  The sparse, lyrical text speaks to memory, shared moments and lvoe beyond words.
