Description

A haunting and moving story for readers of The Guide ThiefFifteen-yr-old Lina is just a girl living a regular life--until Soviet officials rip her family apart and occupy her house. Separated from her dad and forced onto a packed train, Lina, her mom, and her small brother make their method to a Siberian work-camp, where they're forced to struggle due to their lives. Lina finds comfort in her artwork, recording these activities by drawing. Risking everything, she imbeds hints in her drawings of the area and privately moves them along, wishing her drawings can make their method to her father's prison camp.
