| Summary: | "This is the story of two parallel journeys in cities far apart. A mother and a son leave their home for a better day, while a father and a daughter leave their home for a safer day. The concerns of the parents are almost the same as they watch over their kids, but their experiences are sadly very different. The father and daughter are fleeing a city devastated by war, leaving their home--and beloved goldfish--behind. All through their journey the goldfish follows them as a symbol of longing and hope. The two families' paths finally cross on a Ferris wheel and, as they go round and round, trading places with each other, we understand that we are all connected."--Publisher's website. |
