Description

Jude never thought she'd be leaving her beloved brother and father behind, all the way across the ocean in Syria. But when things in her hometown start becoming volatile, Jude and her mother are sent to live in the United States with relatives. This poignant and hopeful novel in verse tells the story of a young girl's journey as she navigates a new life in America, where everything seems too fast and too loud. As Jude struggles to find her place, she discovers new friends, a whole new family, and a school musical that might just be the key to her happiness. But it's not just about finding a new home - it's about finding herself. This lyrical and life-affirming story is about the power of resilience, the importance of identity, and the beauty of finding one's place in the world. A beautifully written and deeply moving novel, "Other Words for Home" is a story about the complexities of belonging, the beauty of new beginnings, and the strength of the human spirit.
