That is a beautiful representation of why we think diversity in life is so magical.Īsk your students critical questions about the language in books. In that difference, however, something new and wonderful is created when they are brought together. Their food preferences, language, and artistic styles are each shown to be opposite. The book shows the stark contrasts between the boy and his grandfather. We also love that the story highlights the experience of an Asian-American family, specifically. Every family can relate to that in some way or another. Sometimes it is difficult for older family members and younger family members to connect - especially now that we have the added obstacle of social distancing because of the pandemic. We love this story because it highlights a struggle that many families have. Their two unique styles blend together representing the relationship between a grandfather and grandson. Dan Santat’s illustrations beautifully represent how these two people communicate through a shared love of art. “Drawn Together” by Minh Lê is a wonderful story about a grandfather and grandson learning to connect with one another despite the challenges they face speaking to one another.
