Review

Mother is coming home from war because she is a soldier. Big beautiful illustrations that look very realistic. The little boy sees everyone else meeting their loved ones and is patient but anxious to see her. Lettering is bold and sparse. The characters and dog are expressive. You get the melancholy yet hopeful and joyous feel from the first look at the cover. Cream of the crop

Overall Book Score: excellent
