Sunflower’s monochromatic illustrations delight ... with dazzling bursts of burnt orange splashing through."" —Publishers Weekly, Booklife Review. Editor's Pick! ""[Four Fallen Eagles] contains great power in its prose, encapsulating a stunning metaphor for cultural assimilation and the desire to discover who we are in this world. The illustrations by E. B.
