Illustrated with memorable full-color paintings, this is Says most personal and remarkable picture yet of the bridging of the two cultures.
Full color.
1994 Caldecott Medal.
Lyrical, breathtaking, splendid--words used to describe Allen Says Grandfathers Journey when it was first published.
At once deeply personal yet expressing universally held emotions, this tale of one mans love for two countries and his constant desire to be in both places captured readers attention and hearts.
Winner of the 1994 Caldecott Medal, it remains as historically relevant and emotionally engaging as ever.
