About the Book With poetic language and hauntingly beautiful artwork, LaFleur and Oehlers spin a darkly fantastical tale, leading the reader on a courage-testing adventure through a Brothers Grimm-style fairy-tale forest of great magic and ever deepening peril. Book Synopsis Face your fears in this gorgeously illustrated graphic novel, set in a dark, Brothers Grimm-style fairy-tale woods. Review Quotes Praise for The Errand: Groundbreaking, spellbinding, this book is a winning collaboration between writer and artist. In these days where faster is better and shorter trumps longer, two gifted artists have decided to take us on a journey through a mythological forest. This haunting archetypal tale -- where the forces of good and evil swirl around the heroic journey of a young boy -- harks back to the best of The Brothers Grimm. LaFleurs text is exquisite word music, leaving space for Oehlers art. Such ART! Images so rich in detail readers will tumble off chairs into the page: gripped, scared, hopeful, but never to be let go. Not even after the book is closed. These two have created a world we will revisit, and a boy whose journey we will want more of-- not just one magnificent book. Im enchanted, gobsmacked, thrilled for readers of all ages and inspired by the accomplishment of these creators. -- Sheree Fitch, Award Winning Author of The Gravesavers About the Author Leo LaFleur writes short stories, poems, novels, and songs.
