“Aminah, a young girl of South Asian heritage, loves her life, which she describes as full of “sparkles.”…Everything changes when her mother and father share that they will be going on an adventure of their own: they are moving to a new place, an airplane ride away from Da. …Debut author Hassan effortlessly conveys Aminah’s feelings of discomfort and anxiety while embarking on an unknown journey, working in tandem with Wilson’s soft, gentle palette to convey the infinite, intergenerational love experienced by Aminah and her family.”
