    Summary: 
    A young girl leaves her beloved doll behind when she must make the journey from India to Pakistan in the aftermath of their partition by the British government.
    "Azra knows that wherever she goes, her doll, Gurya, will follow. Even if it's on a train that takes Azra far away from the house her family has lived in for generations. Even if there is a new flag flying in Dehradun now, and no place left in the city for her. At least she will have a piece of home wherever she is. But when Abba comes home and says they must leave right now, Gurya gets left behind in the scramble. Will Azra be strong enough to face the long journey alone? And what will happen to Gurya, now hundreds of miles behind them? Inspired by the author's own family story of surviving the partition of India in 1947, this lyrical tale is a moving testament to the strength, courage, and perseverance of the over 10 million refugees displaced by the largest forced migration in recorded history." -- Book jacket
