Overview

When twelve-year-old Seema Trivedi learns that she and her family must move from their small Indian town to Iowa City, she realizes she'll have to say good-bye to the purple-jeweled mango trees and sweet-smelling jasmine, to the monsoon rains and the bustling market. More important, she must leave behind her best friend and cousin, Raju. Everything is different in Iowa City, where Seema feels like an outsider to the language and traditions. As she begins to plant roots in the foreign soil, however, her confidence starts to bloom, and she learns she can build a bridge between two homes. With lyrical language and poignant scenes, Kashmira Sheth unearths the meaning of "home" and "family" in this tender debut novel. Kashmira Sheth's own experiences as a teenager who moved by herself from India to America inspired her to write this novel. She is a microbiologist and lives with her family in Madison, Wisconsin.

When twelve-year-old Seema moves to Iowa City with her parents and younger sister, she leaves friends and family behind in her native India but gradually begins to feel at home in her new country.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
PW's starred review said, "In this delicate, introspective debut novel, narrator Seema describes her assimilation to America, capturing the distinct flavors of two different cultures [the U.S. and India]." Ages 9-12. (Apr.) Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
From The Critics
Seema has a wonderful family life and a best friend in her cousin, Raju. Then, the year she is twelve, all these certainties are suddenly shaken when she and her family move to Iowa City. Seema and her little sister, Mela, have to start at a new school, battling the mysteries of the new system and the antagonism of their classmates. Seema cannot forget her house in Vishanagar or her family. But her new home excites her and Seema realizes that she would like to stay on in America. Then her grandmother falls sick and the entire family travels to India to see her. The visit helps Seema put things in perspective and to find the rhythm that will allow her to adjust to life in an alien land. 2004, Hyperion Books for Children, Ages 12 up.
