| Abstract | "The children in my class say my name, and it is like it doesn't fit in their mouths. It sounds like a question every time. A child, newly arrived from another country, feels lonely and a little scared on her first day of school. Her name is mispronounced. She knows she doesn't fit in. And when she eats her whole tomato for lunch, she can feel her classmates observing her--and not quite understanding her. But sometimes all it takes is one connection to bring two worlds together, and gradually the child, her tomato, and her full name start to feel at home." -- Book jacket |
