Palacio makes her graphic novel debut with an unforgettable story of the power of kindness and unrelenting courage in a time of war. "I was captivated by White Bird. It tells the hardest truths with honesty and calm (so that young readers can hear them). R.J. Palacio brings to life the nature of heroism and the real risks we face today." --Meg Medina, Newbery award-winning author of Mercy Suarez Changes Gears In R. J. Palacio's bestselling collection of stories Auggie & Me, which expands on characters in Wonder, readers were introduced to Julian's grandmother, GrandmeÌre. Here, Palacio makes her graphic novel debut with GrandmeÌre's heartrending story: how she, a young Jewish girl, was hidden by a family in a Nazi-occupied French village during World War II; how the boy she and her classmates once shunned became her savior and best friend. Sara's harrowing experience movingly demonstrates the power of kindness to change hearts, build bridges, and even save lives. As GrandmeÌre tells Julian, "It always takes courage to be kind, but in those days, such kindness could cost you everything." With poignant symbolism and gorgeous artwork that brings Sara's story out of the past and cements it firmly in this moment in history, White Bird is sure to captivate anyone who was moved by the book Wonder or the blockbuster movie adaptation and its message. 650 0 $a Grandmothers $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 1 $a Grandmothers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Jewish girls $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 1 $a Jewish girls $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 1 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Graphic novels. 941 $a 7 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012015757.0 952 $l FPPC224 $d 20220706010500.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518023341.0 952 $l NPSX771 $d 20220129010527.0 952 $l SBPB074 $d 20210126010731.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20200114013241.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110081920.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=41876A1E222D11EAA583E2FA96128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
