The Ferris Wheel

Más información sobre el libro

A powerful and heart warming story about displacement that connects children across the world. A story about two parallel journeys in cities far apart. A mother and a son leave their home for a ‘’better’’ day, while a father and a daughter leave their home for a ‘’safer’’ day. The concerns of the parents are almost the same as they watch over their kids but the environment is sadly very different as the father and daughter are leaving their home, a city devastated with war. All through the journey the red fish, the little girl’s pet she has to leave behind, follows them as a symbol of the memory of home. In the end both families get on a ferris wheel and as the wheel turns and turns the readers will see how the world and everyone is connected even though the lives may differ. A simple and powerful story of displacement that transforms refugees into actual men, women and children, and despite differing circumstances, connects children around the world.
