What happens when a new friend arrives who doesn't speak the same language? A young girl searches for the words to help her friend feel welcome and happy in her new home, and along the way learns about differences and similarities in countries and words. The two girls forge a strong bond while they each learn the other's language, exploring the world around them. Told with wonderfully vivid illustrations, The Day Saida Arrived offers an accessible, fresh approach to the topics of immigration, language, and learning.

When Saida arrives, she has no words but a classmate shares her words and Saida responds by teaching her classmate words. Together they learn each other's words and they become friends.
Poetic. Fabulous illustrations. Emotionally moving.
