In this Caldecott Medal-winning picture book, master storyteller
Allen Say chronicles his family's history between Japan and
California. A lyrical, breathtaking tale of one man's love for two
countries, Grandfather's Journey is perfect for fans of Last Stop
on Market Street and Thank You, Omu! Through pensive portraits and
delicately faded art, Allen Say pays tribute to his grandfather's
persistent longing for home that continues within Allen. This
restlessness and constant desire to be in two places speaks to a
universal experience as well as the deeply personal ties of family
to place, and what it means to be at home in more than one country.
Both a celebration of heritage and a poignant exploration of the
struggles we inherit, Grandfather's Journey is a modern classic
perfect for every household.
