With extremely detailed images without any words, this lovely childrens’ novel illustrates the struggle of being a child that has immigrated to the United States. As there are no words, this novel leaves much up to the interpretation of the reader.

Immigrants face daunting challenges.
The world is a better place as they share their stories, and learn ours, too.

This is such a lovely book. A wordless story of a young child's experience immigrating to a new country where they don't know the language or the culture. I used gender-neutral pronouns because when I read through the book I imagined the child was a girl, but the blurb in the back uses male pronouns, so clearly this kid can be whoever is reading!
