Eyes That Speak to the Stars
Description
New York Times bestselling team Joanna Ho and Dung Ho present Eyes That Speak to the Stars, companion to the acclaimed Eyes That Kiss in the Corners.
"A brilliant treatise to love of self and heritage." —School Library Journal (starred review)
"A beautifully validating book that builds on the necessary work of its predecessor." —Kirkus
"Affirmative poetry about a child's eyes and the tale they tell about him. An uplifting read." —Booklist
A young boy comes to recognize his own power and ability to change the future. When a friend at school creates a hurtful drawing, the boy turns to his family for comfort. He realizes that his eyes rise to the skies and speak to the stars, shine like sunlit rays, and glimpse trails of light from those who came before—in fact, his eyes are like his father's, his agong's, and his little brother's, and they are visionary.
Inspired by the men in his family, he recognizes his own power and strength from within. This extraordinary picture book redefines what it means to be truly you.
Eyes That Kiss in the Corners received three starred reviews and was embraced as ""breathtaking,"" ""lyrical,"" and ""poignant."" This companion volume is sure to be welcomed with equal joy.
