Description
When you have to leave behind almost everything you know, it can be hard to find a new place to call home. For one little girl and her brother, their journey is filled with uncertainty and change. But even in the midst of turmoil, they hold onto small things that bring them comfort - a cup, a blanket, a lamp, a flower, a story. These everyday objects become beacons of hope as they travel to a new place, unsure of what lies ahead. The stories they tell each other are a source of strength and inspiration, carrying them forward through the difficult times. This poignant picture book tells the story of one family's journey in a way that is both gentle and powerful. Written by Kyo Maclear and illustrated by Rashin Kheiriyeh, this timely and sensitively told story introduces young readers to the experiences of refugees in a way that is easy to understand and relatable.
