What a gorgeous book! And the author’s and illustrator’s notes flesh out the inspirations behind both the story and the illustrations. The power of song to help overcome loneliness (and fear) is a remarkable trait. The feeling of finding a counterpart, someone who answers your song and creates a harmony is worth the journey and the struggle. La La La is not just a story of hope (as is indicated on the cover) but also a story of persistence. The stunning artwork of Jaime Kim brings this book to life.
