War

どこからか静かに忍び寄る怪しい黒い影。
影は1人の軍服を着た男にとり憑く。
そこから生まれる負の連鎖。
止まらず、そしてあっという間に広がっていく恐怖と悪意、そして狂気。
タイトルに、ただ一言“War”
戦争が広がっていく狂気を見事に描いた絵本です。

An award-winning, stunningly illustrated, sober depiction of war.

A recipient of the prestigious Nami Concours prize, this remarkable book of striking, often surreal illustrations and sparse prose reveals the many sides of war: where it comes from, how it creeps up on us, and how it destroys everything in its wake.

This evocative and bold work is an excellent resource for educators in facilitating difficult yet necessary discussions about wars that continue to be fought around the world.

As Deborah Ellis, author of the Breadwinner series, says: "If children are tough enough to be bombed and starved, they're tough enough to read about it."
