The Vietnam war is over, and Grandfather and young Nam dream that the new dikes will restore the wetlands, bringing home the beautiful cranes that once filled the winter sky. But other villagers think that growing rice is a more practical use for the land. "This is a beautiful book with many layers of meaning and an important message. The simple illustrations...are lovely and appealing."—School Library Journal.
After the end of the war in Vietnam, a young boy's grandfather dreams of restoring the wetlands of the Mekong delta, hoping that the large cranes that once lived there will return.

Grandfather's Dream
Books such as this need to have a map. This is the only picture book I've read about Viet Nam. It acknowledges the war, but doesn't dwell on the pain. It would be a good choice for any family who had someone serve a tour in Nam. The art conveys life in a culture very different from ours, and of course, I like the fact that cranes are the basis of the story.
