Summary

A heartstoppingly beautiful wordless picture book of courage, loss and hope-everything it takes to migrate to a new land.

Migrants Summary

Migrants by Issa Watanabe

The migrants must leave the forest. Borders are crossed, sacrifices made, loved ones are lost. It takes such courage to reach the end. At last the journey is over and the migrants arrive. This is the new place. Through extraordinarily powerful images, Migrants narrates the journey of a group of animals that leaves behind a leafless forest. It is the story of a great and unique migration, a journey where borders must be crossed, sacrifices made, loved ones left behind. With forceful simplicity, Migrants shows us the courage migration takes. Death looms throughout the journey. And arriving may mean burying a portion of the past.

Migrants Reviews

a great deal to discuss with older children and in classes. It is topical and moving exploring loss and hope as well as being a tribute to those who have to leave their homelands * Reading Time * this book is absolutely BRILLIANT ... I imagine this book being such a powerful tool in the classroom - one that could create and encourage some incredible learning opportunities for students. * MrLovesBookshelf - Instagram * Watanabe captures with grace both dignity and determination, and the brilliance of her art's hues against a velvety black backdrop gives the somber spreads great visual power * Publishers Weekly *
