Description
The Island by Armin Greder When a man and a tattered raft wash up on the shore, the people of the Island are faced with a difficult decision. They can't send him back to the sea, but they can't take him in either. As the days pass, the man appears and disappears, leaving the Islanders to wonder what to do with him. The people of the Island are a community bound together by their way of life, but the arrival of this stranger challenges their assumptions. As they try to understand him, they are forced to confront their own values and traditions. This powerful picture book is a stark and haunting exploration of identity, community, and the human condition.
