I stumbled across Sea Prayer while browsing my library's new releases shelf. I'm a huge fan of Khaled Hosseini, so I had to take it home to read it. In less than 50 pages, it turns out that Sea Prayer is actually a beautiful poem disguised as an illustrated short story. There are striking watercolor illustrations throughout the book. The story is a heart breaking tale about a family immigrating from the home they loved and worrying whether they will make it safely. I'm not sure this counts toward my reading challenge, but it was beautiful and worth the few minutes it took to read it
