Gray Horses is a cute, short read about friendship and the dreaminess of being an international student in a foreign country. Larson crafts engaging characters and beautiful settings to backdrop their adventures.

A French foreign exchange student in the US. Very dreamlike and lyrical.

Another lovely waking dream from Hope Larson. Noemie, an exchange student from France, finds Onion City both disorienting and thrilling. There are new friends to be made, and there is the strange, handsome boy who seems to be following her... And at night, there are her dreams of a brave horse and a girl, fleeing mysterious danger. Larson's images flow together, and it is the pictures that truly tell this delicate story, rather than the sparse dialog.

Quiet and evocative. I'm not sure there is any great truth to be gleaned here, but I enjoyed the bilingual storytelling and the surreal trappings of this narrative.

I love Hope Larson's art so much. There wasn't much to the story, short and ethereal.

More like this, where there's magic but it doesn't get explained away. I'm not the expert but I feel like Larson is just light years ahead of everyone else, as far as connecting panels together in interesting & unexpected ways.

A sweet and deceptively simple book that may offer more depth and coherence on rereading but on first pass seems mostly confused and not as clever as it wants to be.
