On the Horizon by Lois Lowry

I love this stunning new work by living legend Lois Lowry. She presents a brief and focused look at two pivotal cities during World War II, and brings the concept of war into a personal focus. This is a perfect companion to any of the novels that take place during this tumultuous time in our history, and the evocative black and white illustrations are by one of my favorite illustrators, Kenard Pak.
