Jude and her mother are forced to leave her father and brother in war-torn Syria to live with her uncle in Cincinnati, Ohio. Everything in America seems loud and fast and the English she learned in school back home and from American movies sounds like a foreign language to her cousin and kids at her new school. Slowly she makes new friends, tries out for the school musical, and prepares to be a big sister.
