"First published in German as Mina entdeckt eine neue Welt by Carlsen Verlag GmbH, Hamburg in 2020. First published in English by Floris Books, Edinburgh in 2002. First published in the USA in 2023."

Mina is worried about starting a new kindergarten in her new country. The classroom is full of laughter, friendly faces and fun things to do, but the only word Mina can understand is her name. As she listens to stories and songs, chatter and instructions, Mina's understanding steadily grows. She tries out sounds that roar in her throat and tickle her tongue until the new words feel like her own. Then one day, Mina realises that this language now belongs to her, and she belongs to this new world. And she's ready to welcome others in
