A Story about Seeing What Others Miss!
Shayna Gordon is settling into life in America, but she still has lots of questions. When a new family moves into her building, she wonders: why is the papa so secretive? Why is the girl her age so unfriendly, and why are her little brothers so wild? Most importantly--where is their mama?
When Shayna’s oldest brother starts working in a photography studio, he teaches her to look at things more carefully. As she gradually comes to know her new neighbors, Shayna begins to realize there’s much more going on than meets the eye.
With caring, creativity, and the encouragement of a few good friends, Shayna tries her best to help. But will it be enough?
Meet Shayna
Shayna Gordon is an eleven-year-old newcomer to New York. America is nothing like she imagined, and she misses her carefree life back in Kiev. Kind, thoughtful and brave, Shayna is determined to find her place in this strange new world.
