Illustrated by
Sara Kahn.
Lebanese boy Luli is heartbroken by the disappearance of one of his three cats (all named Lucy) after his hometown is bombed. Soft watercolor illustrations move between warm oranges and cool blues to reflect Luli's feelings of love and fear. Inspired by Charara's own experiences during Lebanon's 2006 July War (with Israel), Luli's story is a quiet, hopeful exploration of conflict, grief, and healing.
