Omschrijving
Author-illustrator Erika Meza delivers a stunning and emotionally rich book from the viewpoint of those most impacted by border walls: young refugee children. This powerfully told tale highlights the spirit and strength of those embarking on a dangerous trek, and what awaits them on the other side.

My sister tells me the rules of the game are simple.
Avoid the monsters. Don't get caught. And keep moving.
If the monsters catch you, you're out.
A young boy and his older sister have left home to play a game. To win, they must travel across endless lands together and make it to the finish line. Each child imagines what might be waiting for them across the border: A spotted dog? Ice cream! Or maybe a new school.
But the journey is difficult, and the monsters are realer than they imagined. And when it no longer feels like a game, the two children must still find a way to forge ahead.

★ "Beautiful, timely, and poignant. Recommended for all collections." --School Library Journal Online (starred review)
★ "Powerful. It's a realistic but hopeful look at two children's emigration."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
