Description

An unexpectedly heartfelt tale of a friendship between a boy and an origami crane that continues throughout the boy’s life. When a boy’s grandmother shows him how to fold an origami crane, the boy and crane become instant friends. They sail around the room and play, but the crane also watches over the boy and comforts him in a time of loss. The crane is always on the boy’s nightstand—it’s the last thing he sees each night and the first thing he sees each morning. Over time, the boy grows older, and the crane becomes dusty. But even when the boy becomes a young man, the crane plays a part in the most important moments of his life. And one day, just like his grandmother before him, the man shows his own son how to fold origami as the crane looks on. Beautifully written and illustrated, this story of an unlikely friendship that spans generations reminds us how much one moment with a loved one can affect our lives in the most meaningful way.

Media Reviews

“With Kosinski’s concise, expressive prose (“I am his Origami Crane, and he is My Boy”), the crane narrates their poignant friendship…Sánchez’s eye-catching digital illustrations, rendered in a vivid palette of warm reds, oranges, and yellows, as well as cool blues, present striking angles reminiscent of the paper crane’s folds…This story-time selection may encourage both questions about growing up and the role of a child’s treasures in their changing lives. A visually and narratively compelling tale of childhood friendships that evolve and grow.” —Kirkus Reviews “Imaginative and tender, this story may inspire conversations or projects around special objects in readers’ families.” —School Library Journal (starred review)
