A wordless story about “leaving a beloved home, coming to a different place, and…creating a new life for yourself.”
After moving to a new country, a little boy clings to his memories of home until an unexpected event and a joyful girl lead him to discover delightful things in his new home. Though this is (rightly) considered an immigrant story, the boy could just as easily be an Asian TCK…or really, any TCK who grew up in Asia and had to move away. And the story will resonate with any TCK feeling withdrawn and miserable after moving to a new city.
The author, who moved from Korea to the US at age 4 writes: “I hope my story helps you see that you’re not alone.”
Reading level: 5 to 10 years (but really, all ages)
