Who Owns the Clouds? par Mario Brassard
Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.A interesting graphic that offers the reader little guidance in terms of a final definition. It may not be for everyone, but I found it enjoyable.
Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.This book was so gorgeously illustrated. I loved the artwork so very much, it really captured the feel of the writing. It was heavy, the writing, the message. It ended on a better note, but it was still a heavy read about WWII era Germany. I would recommend it to children 13+ though, I think they would be able to understand what was happening, and why this story is important. 4/5 stars.

It won Canada's Governor General's Literary Award. Nine year old Mina is forced to travel to a bombed out ruin of a town where the local stray cats comfort her.

Soon he disappears. Mila and her parents do survive, with differing memories of what they've been through. The old-fashioned illustrations (by Gerard Dubois) are lovely, with some suitable for framing. Only the glum gray cover does the story a disservice; I hope it doesn't dissuade many readers.… (plus d'informations)
