What would it be like to move to another country where you didn't speak the language and didn't even recognize the alphabet? The buildings, food, and even animals are different from what you are used to. How would you find a place to live? How would you find work? How would you find something to eat? This is the experience presented in this book.

The Arrival is very effective. There are no words, just illustrations, but this only helps cement the idea of being in a completely foreign world. The art is beautiful and detailed; it reminded me of Chris Van Allsburg's work.
