Azzi and her parents suddenly have to flee from their war-torn home and make a dangerous journey to another country where everything--the language, the food, her school--are different. With a kind helper at school, Azzi begins to learn English and understand that she is not the only one who had to flee her home. But Grandma has been left behind and Azzi misses her more than anything. Will Azzi ever see her again?
