The Stone Goddess

‘There, shimmering in the doorway, was my sister, Teeda … She looked poised to dance … Desperately I stepped towards her and reached out – but she was gone. I blinked, and Teeda had melted into stone.’ When twelve-year-old Nakri’s beloved home is taken over by
rebels, her family is shattered. She and her siblings are torn from their parents and forced to work in a labor camp. After years of struggle and loss, Cambodia is liberated and Nakri’s family begins anew in America. There, Nakri must come to terms with a world devastated by upheavals beyond her control.
While she can leave Cambodia behind, the memories will be a part of her forever.
