Maysa Odeh: Trip for Falasteen, Gebunden

Klappentext

In this picture book follow-up to A Map for Falasteen , young Falasteen journeys to Palestine for the first time, experiencing both the beauty and unexpected challenges of being in her homeland. Falasteen and her parents are on their way to Palestine just like Falasteen has always dreamed!

First, she needs a passport, which has her looooong name written on it. Then, they start their journey, which is far from easy-the plane ride is almost as long as her name; there's a scary guard at the border crossing, who turns Baba away; and it's hard for Mama and Falasteen to figure out which streets they're allowed to drive on.

But when they finally arrive in Baba's village, Falasteen makes a new friend-and when he hears her long name, he tells her about grandfather, and her great-grandfather, and her great-great-grandfather, who all lived here and whose names she carries with her. And Falasteen finally starts to feel at home.
