Books, Manuscripts
When Tania was six years old, she and her parents fled Ukraine during World War II. For years they were refugees in Europe, displaced and without permanent residence. Finally, they found safe housing in a refugee camp, but what about home? Day by day, they stitched together new lives, but it wasn't until a memory of Tania's babushka and her beloved sunflowers that the family at last began to rebuild a sense of home. This true account about debut author Beatrice Rendón's grandmother offers a universal story of hope for refugees around the world.
