(4) YA In this book based on true events, Samira and her family are Persian refugees during WWI. After her parents' death, Samira and her brother are shuffled among refugee camps. The novel effectively touches on issues of childhood and gender differences within the culture but is hampered by some stilted prose and flat characterizations.
