The human spirit is a powerful thing!
Sophany was a dancer in her homeland of Cambodia. Dancing and sharing the dance with others brought her great joy. But when the Khmer Rouge took power in her country, all joy was taken away from the once happy land. Sophany and many others fled Cambodia to start new lives in a new land.
This beautifully illustrated book tells how Sophany was inspired to help herself and others heal from the loss of their homeland. It is a story of survival, triumph and hope.
