Review … "The narrative uses spare language to convey so much—drama, wonder, and, sometimes, pain and misunderstanding. Phams art expertly works in tandem. The characters expressions and movements come across movingly." -- School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW"Mixed-media illustrations reveal a multicultural classroom of children, with black-and-white sketches being used to depict the moments of regret and sadness. Ultimately, the way Rumi and the bully form a bond is a wonderful lesson for all readers." -- Booklist"A loving and lyrical tale about belonging." -- Kirkus Reviews"Hans action is the fulcrum in this compassionate tale about turning bystanders into upstanders, and the move to offer solace to Rumi rather than to confront Asher offers readers another way to intervene when there is conflict." -- Publishers Weekly Details ISBN1534462961 Author LeUyen Pham Language English Year 2023 ISBN-10 1534462961 ISBN-13 9781534462960 Format Hardcover Illustrator LeUyen Pham Pages 40 Audience Age 4-8 Publisher Simon & Schuster Publication Date 2023-07-06 UK Release Date 2023-07-06 Place of Publication New York Country of Publication United States Illustrations f-c digital; spot gloss + emboss on jkt, standard coated stock; 5th color on int NZ Release Date 2023-07-06 US Release Date 2023-07-06 Imprint Simon & Schuster DEWEY 813.6 Audience Children / Juvenile AU Release Date 2023-08-15 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
