During the coldest season, when the world feels scary--what do you
remember about being warm? Baked potatoes. Trust. A kettle on the
stove. Blankets. A smile. And, most of all, the reassurance that
you belong. In his powerful and moving poem, featuring
illustrations from thirteen extraordinary artists, bestselling
author and UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Neil Gaiman draws together
many different memories to answer the question, what do you need to
be warm?
For fans of Two Bobbies comes a moving, true story about a young
man and his dog who escape the violence of the Syrian War. Some
bonds are stronger than war . . . Life for musician Bassel and his
dog Stella in Damascus, Syria, has changed since the civil war
began. Instead of enjoying long walks through their neighborhood,
they hear bombs toppling buildings and sharp blasts of gunfire
through the night. When it becomes too dangerous for him to stay,
Bassel makes the difficult decision to escape, leaving his family,
friends--and Stella--behind. After a long, dangerous journey,
Bassel finally finds refuge in Belgium, but misses his family, his
home, and most of all . . . Stella. With the help of friends in his
new home, Bassel hatches a dramatic plan to rescue his beloved dog.
This remarkable, true story will inspire readers and remind them
that even amid the harshest circumstances of war, acts of kindness
and humanity will always endure.
