:
The Story of an Escape
In contrast to what's normally the case in real life, the children in this tale are not simply passive, but intervene in events. Zari and Nivaan, sister and brother, are fleeing to another country. Zari's flashlight transforms itself into a light saber, which makes Nivaan forget the wooden sword he left behind. And the two of them frequently think up games that make them laugh, even when they don't actually feel like it.
- Beginning readers pick up on their parents' concerns; that's why stories about what it's like to have to flee from your homeland are important.
- Gently told
