Description
Nur has always loved her home by the sea, where water glimmers along a straight horizon.
But when Nur and her family are forced to leave, they begin a long journey to an unfamiliar place. Here the horizon curves and twists, and the moonlight no longer glitters across the water. For Nur, nothing in this new place feels like home.
Then one day, Nur's mother brings her a new set of paintbrushes. Nur's brushstrokes help her connect the place she's lost to this new horizon, and she finds home again through her own creativity and heart.
The Light of Home will resonate with anyone who has ever had to leave a place they've loved.
From author, poet, and physician Diana Farid and artist Hoda Hadadi comes this introspective story about belonging and the power of creativity. For readers of Yuyi Morales' Dreamers and Yamile Saied Méndez and Jaime Kim's Where Are You From?
