In a night of rioting, Daniel and his mother are forced to leave their apartment for the safety of a shelter. “Diaz has not been afraid to take risks in illustrating the story with thickly textured paintings against a background of torn-paper and found-object collage. Without becoming cluttered or gimmicky, these pictures manage to capture a calamitous atmosphere that finally calms. . . . Both author and artist have managed to portray a politically charged event without pretense or preaching.”-- The Bulletin

Beautiful book. Beautiful story.
The illustrations were both gritty and beautiful. And there was a poignant moral to the story as well.

Great picture book!
This book was a great read for my 5th grade classroom. It sparked great conversations among my students. Amazon shipped it quickly, and I received it with plenty of time to spare!
