“A gorgeous story about the love of one’s homeland and the courage it takes to emigrate” -Kirkus Reviews, STARRED
“Anita's courage as she flies off with the dragons to a new land will linger long after the final page” -Girls Read The World
“This beautifully tender narrative touches on all of the emotions that immigrants leaving their home countries may feel - the excitement and sorrow, the fear and courage”-Mai Storybook Library
“What a punch this book packs. Hannah Carmona’s lyrical narrative is paired with THE dreamiest artwork by Anna Cunha - I’m obsessed with the colour palette, and the gentle simplicity of her spreads is calming, yet full of energy” -The Little Literary Society
