Azzi and her parents are in danger. They have to leave their home and
escape to another country on a frightening journey by car and boat. In
the new country they must learn to speak a new language, find a new home
and Azzi must start a new school. With a kind helper at the school, Azzi
begins to learn English and understand that she is not the only one who
has had to flee her home. She makes a new friend, and with courage and
resourcefulness, begins to adapt to her new life. But Grandma has been
left behind and Azzi misses her more than anything. Will Azzi ever see
her grandma again? Drawing on her own experience of working among
refugee families, renowned author and illustrator Sarah Garland tells,
with tenderness and humour, an exciting adventure story to be enjoyed by
readers of all ages. Endorsed by Amnesty International.
