The Laughing Mill and Other Sttories

&#9733;&#160;"Sometimes raw and traumatic, other times hopeful and inspiring, Elsie&rsquo;s bedtime story rings true, encapsulating the heart of Pilipino culture. A beautiful and poignant tale of immigration fused with Tagalog myth."&#160;&mdash;Kirkus, starred review&#9733;&#160;"Deeply poignant . . .&#160;Infusing the heart of Pinoy culture into a moving, accessible bedtime narrative, this &ldquo;story of outsiders&rdquo; will resonate with anyone who has felt estranged in the place they call home."&#160;&mdash;Publishers Weekly, starred review"Deceptively gentle verse novel punctuated with rounded, friendly illustrations . . .&#160;This book packs a lot into spacious, spare lines, and it would work well in conversations about family, immigration, Pilipino history, and world mythology."&#160;&mdash;BCCB"Showcases not only the very tight bonds of Filipino families but also their perseverance . . .&#160;The book&rsquo;s strength lies in Everman's ability to weave a plot that incorporates Filipino mythology with a personal immigration story."&#160;&mdash;Booklist"Everman&rsquo;s poetry is indeed music to the ear, replete with rich language and vivid imagery . . .&#160;This book should find a place in libraries committed to providing diverse books for all students so they can know they belong."&#160;&mdash;School Library Connection&ldquo;Simply beautiful. The kind of book that holds you close and won&rsquo;t let go.&rdquo; &mdash;Erin Entrada Kelly, winner of the Newbery Medal for&#160;Hello, Universe&#160;&ldquo;Written in poignant and at times ethereal free verse,&#160;We Belong&#160;is at once beautiful and sad, comforting and disturbing, and as tender and fierce as the love with which it is told.&rdquo; &mdash;Marilyn Hilton, winner of the APALA Award for&#160;Full Cicada Moon&#160;"A beautiful, intertwined story of searching for a home away from home, told as two tales. Heart-wrenching, engaging, and full of hope." &mdash;K. S. Villoso, author of&#160;The Wolf of Oren-Yaro
