Why this book?:
I was continually seeing information on this book from the publisher (mostly in emails, also at #alaac17). Anyway, I finally managed to request it.
Comments:
Told in English and Arabic, as well as by the use of stone art, the story of Rama and her family as they leave their homes, become refugees, and their journey to safety and happiness is touching. Also touching (and interesting) is the introduction's detailing how the book came about.
