This is about a little girl called Kim Ha who is ten years old. This book is for poetry lovers and it's all about a family who has to leave Saigon because of a war happening.

Kim has to leave and go to America with her family, leaving her papaya tree and all of her friends. I think it would be terrible to lose all your friends and favorite papaya tree because of a dumb war happening, plus moving to a school isn't such a great thing. From my perspective, I think it's really hard to be the new girl anywhere.
