Without holes, light can’t shine through

『A Hole In My Sock』 is a cleverly told picture book in comic strip format about a protagonist who one day discovers a hole in his sock and desperately tries to hide it. Set on an alien planet in space, this book is filled with a diverse cast of unique characters. It beautifully illustrates how the world, made up of the many holes that both you and I have, can be incredibly tender and beautiful. If we remember that, despite our flaws, we are each a star in our own right, then just like the protagonist and their friends in this story, we can gently embrace one another—and ourselves— so that not even the smallest speck disappears.
