2019 This book collects illustrated postcards sent by children's authors and illustrators from around the world to show solidarity with refugees and migrants. The Core Metaphor: The book uses migrating birds as a central metaphor to mirror human journeys, resilience, and the natural freedom of movement across borders. The Format: It showcases 50 selected postcards, complete with their physical postage stamps and postal markings, arranged to follow the four stages of travel: Departures, Long Journeys, Arrivals, and Hope for the Future. The Purpose: Featuring a foreword by Shaun Tan, the collection blends art, personal notes, and literary quotes to foster empathy, with royalties helping support Amnesty International and IBBY refugee programs.
