故事發生在庫德斯坦，小女孩 Mevan 原本擁有溫暖的家園與家人的陪伴。然而，因為戰爭與政治迫害，她和家人被迫離開故鄉，輾轉經過多個國家尋找安全的落腳處。
在陌生的語言、文化與環境中，Mevan感到孤單又害怕，彷彿自己變得越來越渺小。直到有一天，一位陌生人送給她一輛腳踏車，這份看似簡單的禮物，卻讓她重新找回快樂、希望與被接納的感覺。
本書以孩子的視角描繪難民家庭的處境，將「移民」、「流離失所」等沉重議題轉化為溫暖且容易理解的故事。
透過細膩的文字與充滿情感的插畫，讓孩子看見同理心的重要，也理解一個小小的善意，可能對他人的生命產生深遠的影響。
The true story of how a simple act of kindness changed a young refugee’s life – from award-winning author Patricia McCormick with Mevan Babakar.
For generations, Mevan and her family lived in their beloved Kurdistan. But when they are forced to flee by the Iraqi government, Mevan must leave everything behind. Her family travels from country to country in search of safety; and with each stop, Mevan feels more and more alone. Until … a stranger’s gift changes everything.
Based on Mevan Babakar’s own childhood, this is a moving reminder of how powerful just one act of kindness can be.
