Cathedral

Argumento

Strasbourg Cathedral as seen by heroic fantasy illustrator, John Howe! High above the city, which was just waking up, stood this immense cathedral woven of stone lace and gargoyals. This morning, as the misty dawn still envelops its spires in ribbons of mist, a young boy, Nathaniel, sets out to climb its staircases, one after the other... Plunge into the world of heroic fantasy, fascinating with medieval history and architecture, and be captivated by extravagant architectural details and memorable, unique characters, all wrapped together with a plot that holds our attention! Win-Win! An engaging and warm story of a boy who follows his instincts. A unexpected take on the adventure that inevitably follows when we leave childhood behind, keeping the fluttering sense of wonder and curiosity that is particularly resonant when we are just young and one morning out of all that came before and all that would come after, find ourselves free to wander unencumbered without being told, 'No.'. Written and illustrated by a young John Howe, fresh from the vast expanse of British Columbia, Canada, to Strasbourg on an art scholarship. When you read this story, the delight of discovering the grandeur of Strasbourg's famous cathedral is palpable, and we are climbing those staircases as eagerly as Nathaniel!
