Pearl M Mashour: Just as I am, Gebunden

Klappentext

When Aftab's family leaves Iran during the revolution, her world is turned upside down. In a new country, everything feels unfamiliar; her name is hard to pronounce, her food is laughed at, and she struggles to fit in. Caught between two cultures, she hides parts of herself to belong.

Years later, her grandfather reminds her of an important truth: roots matter. Like an oak tree, Aftab's identity is strong and beautiful, and she doesn't have to choose between being Persian or American; she can embrace both.

Just as I am: Two Worlds, One Journey is a heartfelt story about immigration, identity, and the courage to celebrate who you are. Inspired by actual experiences, it invites children to see the beauty in their differences and the strength in their roots.
