An exquisite debut." -Tillie Walden author of On a Sunbeam. A purple background with objects around the text: a muffin with a candle lying next to it on a plate, an entry ID for an event reading "4-DAy-PASS, star", a pirate-like figure can be seen running in a galaxy; a charger; a moth; a crescent moon and a branch with leaves.
