Glimpses of memories from home are intertwined with new experiences, building a nuanced and colourful story about change. Beautifully illustrated, this book allows readers to see, hear, smell and feel alongside Noah, to understand his journey and the importance of welcoming others who have been forced to leave their homes. <i>Every day here at Young Roots, we work with children and young people who have had to flee their homes, and it's so important to see their experiences shared so beautifully with children.</i>
