Book Riot: 

"In beautiful illustrations, this picture book depicts various unhoused persons as they find shelter and spend days with their single bag carrying all of their possessions. One man rests on the couch at a friend's house; a woman makes her way through busy streets and sideways glances. The story doesn't try to fill in anyone's backstory but humanizes each person as they find a place to rest. The puppet-like, warm art is lovely. Back matter includes discussion questions for kids, an author's note about where she got the idea for this story and ideas for how to help the unhoused population. Part of the book's proceeds will be donated to nonprofits like the National Coalition for the Homeless and Homeless Connect."
