Jimmy's Subway Book




As my favorite image book, Jimmy's Subway Book brings me lots of dreams.

I open the book with listening classic music.
The color,the delineation and the words warm my heart.




A blind girl goes to subway station as usual. She travels with subway everyday. She is looking for her own colorful world without eyes. In that world, her dreams, lost memories and happiness will being forever.


I still remember the sentence at the very beginning of this book.

We're extremely fortunate not to know precisely the kind of world we live in. --Wislawa Szymborska


Life has so many things we can not foresee before it happens.

Like love, joy, sad, calamity and luck. We go forward following time without stop. Yes, we are lucky, we have health, family, friends and life. Although, we do not know what will happen in the next second, we still can search our dreams, breathe the fresh air and watch at the sky. That is life.

It's really pretty good for jimmy's book. I heard about it several years ago. Although I don't like cartoon pictures at all, his works did make me get back to my childhood, just like the image in your blog: Gulliver's Travels, it used to be my favorite book.
