Rashin is the new girl in town—she’s both new at school and to the country. She knows one thing for sure: the country she came from, Iran, is shaped like a cat! Once she’s able to point this fact out to her teacher and fellow classmates, she’s happy to learn about where her classmates’ families come from, and what animals or objects those countries are shaped like. This wonderful book from Rashin Kheiriyeh pays a dear tribute to maps, geography, and that indomitable creative spirit that can marvel at, and have fun with, our ancestry and nationalities.

Suitable for children ages 4 to 7.
