Description

Twelve-year-old Ami lives on Culion Island in the Philippines, a place with a complex and often painful history. When Mr Zamora, a government official, arrives with a decree that all healthy children must leave, Ami's life is turned upside down. Her mother, who has been "touched", is forced to make an impossible choice: send her daughter away or risk losing everything. As Ami sets out on the long journey across the sea, she faces challenges and uncertainties that will test her courage and resilience. Will she find a way back home before it's too late? This powerful novel explores themes of prejudice, difference, segregation, family, friendship, and loss, making it an ideal choice for classroom discussion. With its thought-provoking story and relatable characters, this book is sure to resonate with readers aged 11-14.
