“Stevenson tells the real-life story of Eka Nasution and Rainer Oktovianus with simplicity and clarity for younger audience. Both the primary text and the author’s note are written in accessible language, and centering Ghost creates appeal for young readers, who can easily identify with her family’s longing to live their true lives. This introduction to LGBTQ human rights for young children is a gentle and effective one”-Kirkus Reviews

“To say that introducing young children to complex social justice issues – such as those involving LGBTQ+ refugees – is a challenge would be an understatement. But Robin Stevenson’s new picture book manages to present this complicated subject in an accessible and moving way.”-Quill and Quire

“The world is changing, and Canada remains, at least in comparison to the global landscape, an LGBTQ safe space, and Ghost’s Journey plays a role in reinforcing this narrative for a positive purpose. If only more LGBTQ refugees had a Ghost to keep them company through the immigration process!”Highly Recommended-Canadian Review of Materials

“This book charmed me from the get-go. Told from a cat’s perspective, it tackles tough subjects with a light touch. The story broke my heart, then put it back together again. I simply loved it.” –Susin Nielsen, Governor General’s Award-winning author of The Reluctant Journal of Henry K. Larsen and No Fixed Address

“Ghost’s Journey shines a gentle light on the dangers faced by so many LGBTQ+ people in countries around the world. It’s a powerful and important story, beautifully written and full of captivating images.”-Susan Juby, author of Alice I Think and Republic of Dirt

“Awesome book! Most likely one of the best, if not the best, book in Canada to read to kids (and adults) to foster an understanding of LGBTQ+ lived experiences and, of course, the deep love of a faithful cat.” Marilyn McPherson, librarian
