A Cage Is a Cage: PM Press

Lions and tigers and bears and prison abolition, oh my!

Hurriya doesn’t want to go to sleep. Tomorrow, she must visit her dad at the prison, and she wishes he could just be home with her instead.

As Hurriya drifts into a night of wild and wonderful dreams, she meets animals big and small who all have one thing in common: none of them want to live in cages. Through her adventures with panthers, snakes, deer, and more, Hurriya begins to imagine a world where everyone can be free.

Tender, imaginative, and beautifully illustrated, A Cage Is a Cage is a story about love, courage, and the belief that young people can participate in the struggle to abolish both human and nonhuman cages.
