A moving allegory of immigration and hospitality.
This poignant story will spark lasting conversations about the impact of prejudice, the struggles of refugees, and the responsibility we have to our neighbors--especially the new ones..
With charming, delightful illustrations reminiscent of vintage children\'s classics, The Brothers Zzli invites readers to join a bear family\'s search for belonging in a world that views them with suspicion.
Maybe Welcome and her friends need to find someplace that might accept three bears, a bat, and a girl like her: somewhere to call home at last.
Soon after that, a policeman knocks on their door, threatening to destroy the brothers\' beloved beehives.
When the bears invite their neighbors to a big party, only Welcome\'s friend the bat shows up.
But others in the forest find this new family strange, even dangerous.
Welcome has plenty of room in her big, empty house, and the travelers--who have come from far away--make good pancakes and even better company.
One day, the Brothers Zzli come to the doorstep of a little girl named Welcome.
