Pressezitat
A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection"Round-faced, endearing Jun is utterly expressive; her sadness upon returning home each day is especially palpable...A touching immigrant story that hits the heart and stomach." Kirkus Reviews
Lushly illustrated but with carefully sparse text, Home in a Lunchbox is a sensitive and warm debut. This book is a reminder for grown-ups of how differences can bring us together, and a story for children about making friends, bad days, and the warmth and comfort food from home can bring. This story reminds us all how anyone can feel lonely, but small gestures can travel for miles. A beautiful book. Erin E. Stead, illustrator of the Caldecott Medal winning book A Sick Day for Amos McGee
This lushly illustrated book takes readers on a journey of memory and hope, highlighting the power of food to build connections across language, space, and time. Joanna Ho, New York Times bestselling author of Eyes That Kiss in the Corners
