A thrilling WW2 hidden history masterfully told by award winner Daniel Nayeri

1941. The German armies are storming across Europe. Iran is a neutral country occupied by British forces on one side, Soviet forces on another. Soldiers fill the teahouses of Isfahan. Nazi spies roam the alleyways.

Babak and his little sister have just lost their father. Now orphans, fearing they will be separated, the two devise a plan. Babak will take up his father's old job as a teacher to the nomads. With a chalkboard strapped to Babak's back, and a satchel full of textbooks, the siblings set off to find the nomad tribes as they make their yearly trek across the mountains.

On the treacherous journey they meet a Jewish boy, hiding from a Nazi spy. And suddenly, they are all in a race for survival.

Against the backdrop of World War II comes an epic adventure in the faraway places. Through the cacophony of soldiers, tanks, and planes, can young hearts of different creeds and nations learn to find a common language?

Master storyteller Daniel Nayeri keeps you on the edge of your seat, uncertain to the very end.

I absolutely loved this story! So much depth, love, understanding, truth, trust and beauty. Culture expresses so exquisitely through children and dear Baba. I loved his voice and expression so much.

Beautiful story telling

I enjoyed every moment, scene and character of this book. The author is a skillful storyteller and I was thrilled to see another book on audible. I was completely immersed in setting and compelled by the protagonist and his sister. You won't be disappointed!

A Beautiful Diplomacy Lesson

Communication through peaceful childlike approaches is testimony that satisfaction and cooperation is achievable. Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with children.

Beautiful & Sweet & Trustworthy

I completely trust 2 Authors, Jane Austen & Daniel Nayeri. Their writing style may not be too similar, but my heart feels safe in their story hands. You can count on principles that you want both your child and your inner child to hold dear. Thank you, my author friend
