Jude 從未想過她會離開她深愛的哥哥和父親,離開她的家鄉敘利亞。但當家鄉的局勢開始變得不穩定時, Jude 和她的母親被送到辛辛那提與親戚一起生活。
起初,美國的一切似乎都太快、太吵。裘德一直喜愛的美國電影並沒有讓她為在美國上學做好準備,也沒有為她的新標籤「中東」做好準備,這是她以前從未了解過的身份。
但這種生活也帶來了意想不到的驚喜——有新朋友,一個全新的家庭,還有 Jude 可能會嘗試的學校音樂劇。也許美國也是一個讓人重新思考自己是誰的地方。
New York Times bestseller and Newbery Honor Book!
A gorgeously written, hopeful middle grade novel in verse about a young girl who must leave Syria to move to the United States, perfect for fans of Jason Reynolds and Aisha Saeed.
Jude never thought she’d be leaving her beloved older brother and father behind, all the way across the ocean in Syria. But when things in her hometown start becoming volatile, Jude and her mother are sent to live in Cincinnati with relatives.
At first, everything in America seems too fast and too loud. The American movies that Jude has always loved haven’t quite prepared her for starting school in the US—and her new label of “Middle Eastern,” an identity she’s never known before.
But this life also brings unexpected surprises—there are new friends, a whole new family, and a school musical that Jude might just try out for. Maybe America, too, is a place where Jude can be seen as she really is.
