Jamila has found happiness in her new home in Australia, despite missing her old life in Iraq.  She and her new best friend Eva sing side-by-side in the choir at school and have picnics together on the weekends.  When Jamila learns her oldest friend from Iraq is coming to Australia, she can’t wait to introduce Mina to Eva.




Unfortunately when Mina arrives things do not go as planned. Jamila feels torn between her two friends, and sad that Mina isn’t the same person she remembers.   Will Jamila be able to be a true friend to Mina and help her feel safe and happy in her new home?





I give Sunflower five out of five stars!
