The Htoo family, who are Sgaw Karen and originally from Burma, resettled in Georgia in the United States refugee resettlement program in 2007. This book chronicles their life in their new country. While the Htoo family's story is singular, the family's experiences in Burma, Thai refugee camps, and their experiences in the US are representative of other refugees from Burma and beyond. The book provides historical and cultural information on the Sgaw Karen people against the backdrop of the Htoo family's path from Burma to Thailand. It also explores the Htoo children's home and school learning experiences and their relationship with the author as teacher, collaborator, and friend.
