The Flamingo by Guojing

4.0

Not completely wordless but in few words, this book tells the story of a little girl visiting her grandmother and bonding over a story of her grandmother's childhood when she rescued a baby flamingo. It's really beautiful and special and I haven't quite processed why - it's such a simple story -but I am still sitting with it. I love what the illustrator did with the story in pictures - the only thing that was confusing sometimes was the transition between flashback and present because the young version of the grandmother looked so much like her granddaughter in the present.
