Kek comes from Africa. In America he sees snow for the first time, and feels its sting. He's never walked on ice, and he falls. He wonders if the people in this new place will be like the winter - cold and unkind. In Africa, Kek lived with his mother, father, and brother. But only he and his mother have survived, and now she's missing. Kek is on his own. Slowly, he makes friends: a girl who is in foster care; an old woman who owns a rundown farm, and a cow whose name means "family" in Kek's native language. As Kek awaits word of his mother's fate, he weathers the tough Minnesota winter by finding warmth in his new friendships, strength in his memories, and belief in his new country. Bestselling author Katherine Applegate presents a beautifully wrought novel about an immigrant's journey from hardship to hope.

評分適閤青少年讀的英文讀物。句子不難容易理解,語言優美像詩歌。內容是關於一個蘇丹難民男孩在美國的經曆。對於在蜜罐裏長大的孩子們,多瞭解世界上的窮苦人,尤其是同齡孩子們的生活真的很有必要。值得一讀。
