Description
Jude's journey to a new home is one of hope and self-discovery in this beautifully written novel in verse. After being forced to leave her family behind, Jude navigates a new life in America, where she struggles to find her place among the unfamiliar sights and sounds. As she tries to make sense of her new surroundings, Jude discovers unexpected joys - like making friends and finding a passion for singing. But it's not just about fitting in; it's also about embracing who she truly is. This poignant story explores what it means to be home, both physically and emotionally, and the power of finding one's own identity. A heartwarming and life-affirming tale, "Other Words for Home" is a powerful exploration of loss, belonging, and self-discovery.
