Sunny comes up with a plan to help make his father feel more at home in this new place. Blending themes of immigration, migration, and family love, this heartwarming story fosters empathy and emotional understanding--perfect for families experiencing a move, newcomers adjusting to life in a new place, and classrooms exploring social-emotional learning.
