." . . a wonderful teaching tool for those who are welcoming
refugees into their community."--The New York Times With haunting
echoes of the current refugee crisis this beautifully illustrated
book explores the unimaginable decisions made as a family leave
their home and everything they know to escape the turmoil and
tragedy brought by war. This book will stay with you long after the
last page is turned. From the author: The Journey is actually a
story about many journeys, and it began with the story of two girls
I met in a refugee center in Italy. After meeting them I realized
that behind their journey lay something very powerful. So I began
collecting more stories of migration and interviewing many people
from many different countries. A few months later, in September
2014, when I started studying a Master of Arts in Illustration at
the Academy of Lucerne, I knew I wanted to create a book about
these true stories. Almost every day on the news we hear the terms
"migrants" and "refugees" but we rarely ever speak to or hear the
personal journeys that they have had to take. This book is a
collage of all those personal stories and the incredible strength
of the people within them.
