(from the publisher)

In this wordless, all-ages graphic novel, a man discovers a leaf that radiates a vibrant light, thus beginning a quest. Unfolding at a dream-like pace and drawn in a delicate style reminiscent of Shaun Tan’s The Arrival and Chris Van Allsburg’s Jumanji, Leaf is ultimately a hopeful vision of the coexistence of the urban and natural worlds.
