The Boy and the Blue Moon

[psocoptera]

Written by Sara O'Leary, illustrated by Ashley Crowley. A sweet, not-all-that-remarkable picture book, mostly in blues with a few red accents, about a little blond boy having a little adventure with his black cat. From the moment I picked it up I couldn't help but see them as Adrien Agreste from Miraculous Ladybug and Plagg-if-he-was-a-cat, giving me Feelings about the whole thing. I've been trying to have some sort of thought about that, about fandom as an overlay, the thing where you take some unrelated piece of art and see it through your fandom eyes (I have a scan of a page from The Hockey Prince that I will never unsee as Jack Zimmermann)... fanning as an accumulative active process that can conglomerate in bits of other things around its edges, I don't know.
