A charming and comforting debut from Karepango creator Emily Her, pairing sweet comics with gentle emotional support. Includes wellness resources and two pages of stickers!
This cozy, flip-anywhere collection offers gentle support for feelings you don’t always have words for—through tender comics, validating messages, and sweet, surprising humor.
Made by creator Emu, the charmingly imperfect characters of Karepango, like Yobi, Snarp, and Kit, invite readers to find joy and beauty in the mess of daily life. From the humility of a friend saving you from crashing out to the relief of feeling small in a vast universe, Emu inspires anxious minds to love what we have, let go of what we can’t control, and prioritize human connection.
Includes wellness resources from the National Alliance for Mental Health (NAMI) and two pages of Karepango stickers.
