Publisher's Synopsis

See below for English description.

C'est la guerre dans le pays de Saoussan et sa famille doit fuir vers le Canada. À son arrivée, elle ne comprend ni la langue ni les traditions et tout est différent. Pourra-t-elle un jour s'adapter à sa nouvelle vie?

Une histoire vraie et très touchante sur l'intégration et la peur d'une enfant déracinée qui se retrouve du jour au lendemain dans un environnement entièrement nouveau.

Based on a true story, Saoussan and her family flee a war-torn Lebanon, where bombs and gunshots were part of a daily life. Now safe in her new country, Saoussan starts school without being able to speak a word of English. Will she be able to face her fears and adapt to this new culture?
