Grandfather's Journey by Allen Say
5.0
I picked this up from the OTC library after hearing Lois Lowry tell the story of winning the Newberry award for The Giver the same year Allen Say won the Caldecott award for this book. Though a discussion at the awards ceremony, they found out that they went to the same school in Toyko.
The pictures in this book are just lovely and the bittersweet sentiment of belonging to more than one place is eloquently expressed. If you have picture-book-aged kiddos, check it out, or even if you are an adult like me who likes to occasionally read a beautifully illustrated book. :)
