World Kid Lit Month 2021: CROATIA

CROATIA: 

The traveling circus. 

By Marie-Louise Gay and David Homel. 

Charlie and his family are about to embark on another trip, to another out-of-the-way place off the beaten path. This time they are heading to an island in Croatia — an incredibly beautiful country that lives in the shadow of war and conflict. Even for a seasoned traveller like Charlie, Croatia is a very different experience: the language is unfamiliar and half the words have no vowels, goats are a traffic-calming device, and red cliffs loom like fortresses over an impossibly blue sea.
