I especially appreciated the "author's note" section which offers more details behind this true story. She also includes facts about the Korean peninsula, the politics and North Korea. A map is also included to reinforce understanding.
The author actually participated in this event.
A great book to discuss with children about this sad situation in North Korea.
The illustrations are beautiful.
The text is short and almost every page contains figurative language which makes it excessive in my opinion.
-Borrowed from the library.
