A girl grows up happily with her adoptive parents, a big sister and a little sister, and friends galore in a vibrant, close-knit community she adores . . . until a creature from outer space falls from the sky and claims (correctly) that she looks more like him than any of the beings she knows and loves. He urges her to go back with him. She doesn't belong here. Can he be . . . right? Shaun Tan's masterpiece is a uniquely powerful, funny, and insightful exploration of identity, and what it means to be home. A perfect companion to The Arrival.

Shaun Tan is an artist, writer, and filmmaker from Perth, Western Australia. He is the recipient of an Academy Award, the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award in Sweden, and the Kate Greenaway Medal in the United Kingdom. He lives in Melbourne with his wife, two children, and various species of plants and animals.
