Summary: A young girl in modern times comes from India to live in America with her extended family. She feels so alone--like she's not wanted--and then remembers a story her mother once told her about a group of Persians who were ousted from their country and who sailed to the western shores of India in search of a new home. The young girl realizes that she, too, is being accepted by those in her neighborhood and that she can finally start feeling like a part of this new American society.
