A story of refugees filled with hope and imagination
'Story Boat' by Kyo Maclear with illustrations by Rashin Kheiriyeh is a picture book about young refugees finding comfort and hope in the simplest of objects.A family forced to flee to a new home includes a young girl and her little brother. They must learn to make a home as they travel. A simple object like a cup can be a boat in the imagination. A blanket becomes a sail. And hope is ever on the horizon.This picture book is about a sad situation, but I liked the viewpoint of hope that it took. The children have imaginations that help them cope.The illustrations are also very lovely.I received a review copy of this ebook issue from Tundra Books, Penguin Random House Canada, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
