## Description

The Arrival by Shaun Tan - Hardcover : Tan, Shaun, Tan, Shaun: desertcart.ae: Books

Review: A story for any age, any language, and any reading level. Amazing!!
Review: I first saw this book as part of an exhibit at the George Eastman Museum in Rochester, NY. I'm not really sure why it was there - it was sitting on a bench in one of the galleries. I leafed through it briefly - the illustrations are so beautiful that I bought two - one for me, one as a gift. It's possible to just thumb through the book and appreciate the illustrations - but it's definitely worthwhile to start at the beginning and follow the story. I may buy more to give as gifts in the future.
