Pie in the Sky by Remy Lai

5.0

It’s scary enough to move to different country, but when everyone else around you sounds like aliens from a different planet, and your brother is a “booger,” it’s just terrifying. Jengwen and his family move to Australia, he is stressed about leaving behind his friends and grandparents. Mostly he is heartbroken to make this trip without his dad, who wanted to come to Australia to open a bakery.
This book is about growing pains, pain of loss, and coping through it all. A beautifully crafted book that shows the frustration of learning a language, coping with immigration, and how the goodness of people can heal wounds.
