When Maya moves to a different country, she feels lonely and lost. Everything--and everyone--seems so unfamiliar here, and she wonders if she will ever find a way to fit in. Longing for her home, she holds tightly to the special seeds her grandmother gave her, afraid to plant them. Can she take the risk that they--and she--might grow and bloom in this new place?
