While Milo and his sister travel to a detention center to visit their incarcerated mother, he observes strangers on the subway and draws what he imagines their lives to be.
Why I like this book: Milo Imagines the World breaks a lot of stereo types and deals with the difficult topic of having an incarcerated parent without having that be the main topic of the whole story.
