Newbery Honor Book!
A gorgeously written, hopeful middle grade novel in verse about a young girl who must leave Syria to move to the United States, perfect for fans of Jason Reynolds and Aisha Saeed.
Jude never thought she’d be leaving her beloved older 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 Cincinnati with relatives.
At first, everything in America seems too fast and too loud. The American movies that Jude has always loved haven’t quite prepared her for starting school in the US—and her new label of “Middle Eastern,” an identity she’s never known before.
But this life also brings unexpected surprises—there are new friends, a whole new family, and a school musical that Jude might just try out for. Maybe America, too, is a place where Jude can be seen as she really is.
This lyrical, life-affirming story is about losing and finding home and, most importantly, finding yourself.

Citater

  • Lizzette Canohar citeretfor 3 år siden
    Sometimes I feel like you have to say things out loud

    just to remind the universe

    that you’re still thinking about them.
  • Анастасия Гречанаяhar citeretfor 3 år siden
    I wonder if it is exhausting

    to be a tree.

    To lose something,

    year after year,

    only to trust that it will

    someday grow back.

    I have learned Americans love to say you know and then

    stop

    talking.

    They force you to fill in the hard parts,

    the things they are not brave enough to say.
