English

I Wish You Knew

A timely, moving picture book about the uncertainty a young girl feels after her father is deported—and the empathy that grows when we share and listen to one another. When Estrella's father must leave because he wasn't born here like she was, she misses him deeply and wishes others understood how it affects her, at home, at school, always. Beneath the old oak tree at her school, children open up: some miss family, some go hungry, some live in shelters. Together they learn that no one is alone when others are willing to listen.
