Inhaltsangabe

Roop carries her newest toy―a kaleidoscope―everywhere she goes. The world inside it looks fractured and shifting… and so does the world around her. Unfamiliar words echo through her days: India. Pakistan. Partition. Home.

They feel distant and confusing―until one night changes everything. Suddenly, Roop finds herself standing at a riverbank, facing a crossing that will determine where her new home will be.

In this moving and powerful story, award-winning author Samina Mishra brings to life one of history’s darkest chapters through the eyes of a child. Through Roop’s journey, she weaves a tale of loss, connection, resilience, and the search for belonging in turbulent times.
