In this moving picture book, a girl shares in her diary the deep longing she feels for her father, who is working in another country. Through her words, the reader experiences the countdown of the days until the expected reunion. The story addresses the experience of emigration from a child's perspective, narrated with sensitivity and poetry by two authors who have personally experienced uprooting and adapting to new cultures. An essential read to understand and accompany children who face the distance from their loved ones.
