The Duchess Of Whimsy by Randall de Seve

This is a cute story about the Duchess of Whimsy and the Earl of Norm. As the name indicates, the Duchess of Whimsy is.. whimsical. She loves having fun, bright colours and is the life of the party. The earl of norm is 'normal' aka quiet/ introverted. The earl admires the duchess because of her spirit and tries to get her to notice him, but she thinks he's normal and doesn't like him. One day the duchess's chef gets a cold on the day she's having one of her parties and so all of the guests begin trying to help make dinner. All of her friends are like her so they want to make outlandish dishes but the earl just makes grilled cheese. The duchess is interested and takes a bite and loves it, and then she and the earl become friends. She sees how she's like him and he sees how he's like her. It's an opposites attract story. It's sweet even though it's been done before. the art is amazing. It's very colourful and fun.
