librarianryan 's review for:
Islandborn
by Leo Espinosa, Junot Díaz
Such an absolutely wonderful little book. Mia has a class assignment to draw her first home, but she was too young to remember the island. So she goes door to door asking friends and neighbors what it was like, and creating her place in its history. I love that the author never goes into detail which island. I assume it is his birthplace, but maybe not. The story is about belonging, and always having a place. The illustrations are simply amazing.
