Kii and Uta are twins but when Kii gets scolded yet again, she’s determined to run away. What will Uta do without her sister? There must be some way to make her stay. Maybe enticing her with a snack or a new picture book? Yukiko Tanemura’s Kii Runs Away is a heartwarming story that reminds kids to be thankful for their home and family. Winner of the 34th Kodansha Award for New Picture Book Illustrators, the art is also a highlight.
