There, a small boat is supposed to bring the six-year-old, along with her family and many others, to freedom. "The Girl with the Pearl Necklace" is a story of departure, escape, and arrival, carried by the strength of hope. A mini picture book with a warm-hearted narrative style and touching illustrations that promote empathy and tolerance.
