Starred Review for Il Sung Na’s Welcome Home, Bear

Welcome Home, Bear by Il Sung Na won’t be available for purchase until July, but Kirkus is already singing its praises in a Starred Review.  They write, “The text is spare, usually only a sentence on each spread, but carefully and engagingly written. Listeners can’t help but sympathize with Bear in his frustration and rejoice when he finds the place that’s ‘just where he wanted to be.'” Look out for this sweet new story from the inimitable Na, in stores this summer.
