rc211's review against another edition
Drawn Together is a very powerful and emotional book with so few words that it touches the hearts of all who may read by using art in order to close the communication barrier by the two characters in the book. The illustrations in this book are beautifully done and convey its message that regardless of language barriers there are other ways to communicate with others and find a happy medium to better understand one another.

Rounding up from 4.5. Beautiful message of how human connection and creative expression can transcend the barriers of language and generational differences.

Sooooo cute!!!!!!! There is nothing like language barriers to build unnecessary walls between people. The characters are a gradfather and grandson who cannot communicate. This is a beautiful story with few words. The illustrations are absolutely stunning. Well done.

After finding a shared love of art they find a way to "talk" to each other and finally understand one another.bet27's review against another edition
