Description
Gravity keeps me here. Or love, which is kind of the same thing.
A spectacular new illustrated book for readers aged 9-99 about home and belonging from the internationally renowned artist Shaun Tan.
"When it comes to originality and genius, Tan is in a league of his own." The Irish Independent
A girl lives with her family, friends and neighbours in her hometown. Every so often, she can't help wondering if there might be more out there for her. But life is good.
When a strange human boy lands in her hometown and insists she return to her "real home" with him, the girl must make a choice. Where does she truly belong?
A beautifully illustrated, thoughtful and funny story about finding your place in the world.
"Loved it! Chock-full of magic!!" Guilermo Del Toro
