Acerca deste libro electrónico
From an award-winning author comes a moving wordless story about leaving one’s beloved home country, told with powerful illustrations by a Ukrainian artist who is herself a refugee.
On a snowy street, two girls live across from each other with their families and their cats. But one day, when conflict comes to their city, they all must grab a few possessions and ride on the crowded overnight train away from the place they know as home. Through the eyes of the girls’ feline companions, we glimpse the pain of relocating under duress, while imagining a fantastical, hopeful future to come. Well suited for discussing and fostering empathy with young children, this wordless storyline by Gideon Strerer pairs with raw, emotive illustrations by artist Polina Doroshenko, who escaped Kyiv, Ukraine, with her daughter at the start of the war.
