The curiosities  Cover Image Book Book

The curiosities / Zana Fraillon ; Phil Lesnie.

Fraillon, Zana, (author.). Lesnie, Phil, 1985- (illustrator.).

Summary:

"With The Curiosities, a whole world of wonders and possibilities awaits... Miro wakes one morning to find the world isn't quite the way he thought it was. When the Curiosities choose Miro as the one they nest on, Miro is led to discover all the marvels waiting in the shadows where no one else looks. Sometimes though, the Curiosities can make Miro feel alone and invisible in the darkness. But perhaps Miro isn't as alone as he thinks... Featuring gorgeous art inspired by Phil Lesnie's Filipino heritage, and a gentle, heart-touching story from award-winning children's book author Zana Fraillon, The Curiosities is a nuanced portrait of emotions, self-expression, and empathy, and will leave readers feeling inspired to celebrate themselves and others who do not adhere to societal rules."-- Provided by publisher.
