"The magic of art. The magic of grandparents. The divide of not speaking the same language. It’s all here in the art and the story of a young boy dropped off at his grandpa’s. The grandpa speaks Thai, not English, and the two don’t even like to eat the same food. Finally, the grandpa grabs his ink and brush so that he and his grandson can connect on the page. Minh Lê and Dan Santat do a beautiful job of showing the universal in this specific story. (For ages 4 to 7)"
