Laughter, tears, and that wonderful feeling of holding in your hands a must-read illustrated novel, one that just keeps on giving.

Pauline is eight, with her own room, her own things. Everything is just right. So she's not thrilled to find out her parents are going to host a family of Syrian refugees: two parents and two children, Zein and Syrine, the latter a little girl barely old enough to walk. Pauline will have to share her apartment, her friends, even her teacher. What an outrage! If she wants some peace and quiet, she's going to have to end the war in Syria. What choice does she have? But since the President of the World isn't doing anything to solve the problem, it looks like Pauline'll have to learn to share her space. That is, without changing her legendary lying ways, sense of humor, and fiery personality!
