Extremely relevant book for children to understand the experiences of people who have had to leave their home land for various reasons.

This is such a lovely book. Not only is it beautifully illustrated but it’s written in such a way that it gets a harrowing story across without being too scary for smaller children. The way it focuses on the experience told through a child’s eyes makes it as magical as it is sad, and it’s a brilliant way to teach children about refugees and having compassion for others. I think it should be in every school and library. Would recommend :)

This is a beautifully written book, which encouraged a really good conversation with my 6 year old and 9 year old. The illustrations provide a wonderful background. I am looking forward to re-reading it with my children. Would recommend over and over again.

This is a very compassionate tale that I think will help children see themselves represented in books as well as helping others to understand the experience of the displaced.

Sonia has such a poetic style of writing without being too cliche, and the illustrator has done a terrific job of bringing her words to life.

It looks stunning on my shelf and I'm so proud to say my talented cousin is a published author! 💕

Couldn’t wait to get a copy. Such an important story captured in an accessible and sensitive manner. Beautiful illustrations really allow the reader to see through the eyes of Amina. Would recommend and would love to see it available in schools.
