Come discover An Invisible River to Cross by Taraneh Matloob at the Red Comet Press Booth #3529 at ALA this week!

When a young girl named Afsi arrives in a new country, English words snare her like spiderwebs and her classroom feels impossibly far away. But when a simple act of kindness — a pad of paper and colored pencils — reignites her love for drawing, she discovers that creativity can bridge even the widest divide.

Poetic, tender, and deeply moving, An Invisible River to Cross is a beautiful reminder that expression takes many forms — and that quiet bravery is sometimes all it takes to find your voice in a new world. A wonderful addition to library and classroom collections exploring belonging, resilience, and the power of art.

Triple starred reviews. One of the most anticipated children's books of Spring 2026. And a story that will stay with you long after the last page.

Between Barbed Wire by Mia Wenjen & Violeta Encarnación is available at ALA at Booth #3529 — and don't miss Mia's signings while you're there!

This extraordinary reverso poem tells two deeply resonant stories across time: a Japanese American girl sent to an internment camp in Oklahoma during World War II, and — read in reverse — a Latina girl detained in that very same camp decades later during the U.S. policy of migrant family separation. Harrowing, emotionally charged, and impossible to forget, Between Barbed Wire asks a question we all need to sit with: what have we truly learned in 80 years about how we treat the most vulnerable among us?

A powerful, necessary addition to every library and classroom collection.
