The Song That Called Them Home by David A. Robertson
5.0
adventurous emotional mysterious slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Gorgeous illustrations and sparse language present a haunting story of children lost and re-found, reminding me of Maurice Sendak's Outside Over There in tone.
