ничего я тут не почувствовала. то ли потому что комикс на три разворота и разбежаться некуда то ли я просто не могу уже эмоцию выдать в такой обстановке.

Beautiful illustrations, words, and feelings. This is heartbreaking, yet very beautifully sad.

An important story about a father who is telling his sleeping son their story before the war.
A beautiful and important story in memory of the refugees who have perished at sea
fleeing war and persecution.

Your time would be better spent reading Sea Prayer than reading this review since both will probably be the same amount of words, and the words in the book are far more powerful and relevant in today’s world. That being said, I was so moved by this beautifully written prayer. Truly it is fashioned as a poem, and the illustrations are beautiful and add so much to the story. It will take to less than 10 minutes to read, and your life will be better for it, if only to have an appreciation for what so many people are going through today.

This was a super quick read, but I did enjoy it! Telling a father’s prayer for his son as they seek refuge from a war-torn Syria, it’s a book that will grip your heart. I loved the poetry and the illustrations but, to be honest, I wanted more from this book.

Beautiful. I’d like to get this for a child. It’s a very heavy topic, but children are getting more and more exposed to horrors. This book
us a protection over them.
