  1. Akshat Jain

    Touching and thought-provoking. Briggs beautifully captures the anxieties of our time.

  2. Ayush Pandey

    Classic Briggs! Loved the grumpy characters and the environmental message. The illustrations are beautiful and heartbreaking.

  3. Pushpam Raj

    Good but very depressing look into the future. Beautiful illustrations though, the artwork keeps it from being unbearable.

  4. Sahil Matta

    A bit too depressing and not enough of a story. His other work is far better. I was pretty dissapointed and expected more.

  5. Tanishq Sharma

    Enjoyed the book, though it was definitely a somber read. The illustrations are impactful, and the message is important. A worthy read.

  6. Kshitij Vilas Chaudhari

    A poignant reflection on environmental decay. The humor is there, but it’s a heavy read. Not his best, but still worth it for fans.

  7. Yash Yadav

    The themes of aging and environmentalism are relevant, but the story felt a bit disjointed.

  8. Nandini

    It was okay. Not as good as I expected. A bit too preachy for my taste. But it offers a powerful message.

  9. Jyotsna Kapoor

    Briggs’ unique style shines through. The dark humor and poignant illustrations make it a compelling read.

  10. Afzal Ahmad

    Briggs’ work is always worth reading, even when it’s bleak. This one is no exception. This book carries an importance message.

  11. Nishita Chowdhury

    Fantastic! Another brilliant work from Raymond Briggs. Such an important message for everyone, presented in a unique way.

  12. Anees Ali

    Found it a bit slow and depressing. The art is lovely, but the story didn’t grab me like his other works. The environmental themes are strong.

  13. Atul Keshri

    Briggs does it again! Darkly funny, but a bit too bleak for me. The illustrations are spot on, as always. Explores the issues of environment and aging, but left me feeling a bit depressed.

  14. Kanishk Kumar

    A powerful and moving story. Briggs tackles tough issues with his trademark wit and compassion. Highly recommend!
