Reviews

"... [A] stirring tale with details that evoke the senses. A beautiful tale of family, love for a lost homeland, and remembrance." -- Kirkus Reviews
"Moushabeck's text combined with Madooh's illustrations thoughtfully showcase dignity, joy, and resistance along with profound senses of loss and love of community." -- Shelf Awareness, starred review
