Perfect for fans of Allen Say, Francesca Sanna, and Yuyi Morales. </b> <p/> When a weary stranger arrives one day, with only a suitcase, everyone is full of questions: <p/><b>Why is he here?</b> <br><b>Where has he come from?</b> <br><b>And just what is in that suitcase?</b> <p/> To learn the answers, they can either trust the newcomer or discover what they risk by not believing him. <p/> A story about hope and kindness, truth and perception--and most importantly, about how we treat those in need. <p/> "At a time when over 65 million people are forcibly displaced around the world, this beautifully illustrated and wise, gentle tale of tolerance and kindness for fellow humans resonates deeply.
