A PLACE FOR US written and illustrated by James E. Ransome

Fan-favorite James E. Ransome whose illustrations have added so much emotion to so many picture books now delivers a stunning new wordless book, A PLACE FOR US. It captures a short period of time where a woman picks up her son from school and together, they spend an afternoon savoring being together whether it’s at a fast-food restaurant, or the library. As the sky darkens and the library closes, she chooses a city park bench, covers her son with her jacket and watches over all night long. Ransome’s illustrations make clear that the love between mother and child help the two endure being unhoused. Find a link to the book in the purchase button below.
