An attractive first edition/first printing in Fine condition, seemingly unread, in Near Fine, spine sunned dust-jacket. From the collection of Betty Anderson, legendary art director of publisher Knopf in the late 20th century as evidenced by her (small and unobtrusive) inventory number and signature on front paste down.

The story follows the life of a young girl, Lina, who is forced to flee her home in war-torn Syria. She is taken in by a kind couple in Canada, but is soon forced to leave again when her adoptive parents are killed in a car crash. Lina is then taken in by a family in Virginia, but is constantly on the run from the authorities, who believe she is a fugitive. The novel follows Lina's journey as she tries to find her place in the world, and learn to trust again.; 8vo; FSA.
