Vertigo 2001

Writer and Illustrator -  Jill Thompson

A small review for a little book.  Part of the continuing world of the Sandman series that was originally created by Neil Gaiman, The Little Endless Storybook takes us on a whimsical journey.  From the mind of Jill Thompson, who has taken the series into new horizons, we get a story for children of all ages.  Even the grown up ones as 'adult' is a bad word in my realm of existance. 

Through a water color world we follow Delirium's companion, the dog Barnabas, as he travels to each of her siblings in order to find his missing Delirium.  It is a great journey of whimsy that is a fun interlude to any day.  Five minutes with this book and even on the worst days, it will coax a smile. 

For any Sandman fan, child of a Sandman fan, or just someone seeking an eccentric romp through the realm of strange... pick this title up.  It is absolutely brilliantly fun.
