All by Myself

The gentle humor and relatable struggles make this book special. I'm curious about what motivated the themes of self-reliance and family bonds.

The way the animal tries to do things on its own but still seeks reassurance is so authentic. Does this reflect Mayer’s own experiences or observations?

The expressive faces and playful scenes add so much personality. I'm wondering if Mayer had specific techniques or ideas in mind when designing the artwork.
