One time, when I asked her why she always to be in a hurry, she said, “There’s a book next to my bed waiting for me.”

I got this ARC from NetGally in exchange of an honest review.

This book is about Sophie & Leo. Sophie who is an illegal immigrant from Syria, Leo who becomes her new neighbor in America. She loves books, and has a different take on life that she got from her grandfather. She is proud and never bows her head. He loves to draw, and is a very average American teenage boy. Then they met under a oak tree.

I loved the way is described what “Sharing is caring” originally means.

“Not everything in life is fair, and we all need to learn how to deal with it”

– Mr. Summer

There are many life lessons in this book and these are described so simply that it won my heart. I am seriously planning on getting a copy for myself persons-0007 What I loved the most is that after the “problem” it didn’t show that everything magically got fixed, it showed a logical ending and a very magical one. Love.. Love.. Love this book!!
