About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts asking difficult questions about their heritage, the concept of home, or why some families have to move far away. It is a vital resource for families processing intergenerational trauma or those looking to foster deep empathy for the refugee experience through a lens of hope and survival. The story follows a young boy's journey from the Armenian Genocide to finding safety, emphasizing how sharing our stories can lead to healing. While the historical context is heavy, the poetic writing and focus on the bond between parent and child make it accessible for children aged 7 to 12. It serves as both a mirror for Armenian children and a window for others, providing a gentle yet honest entry point into a history of resilience. Parents will appreciate the way it honors the past while looking toward a courageous future.
