Synopsis

The experience of displacement can leave children with overwhelming feelings they don’t always understand. Inspired by stories and conversations with refugee children, this heart-warming and empowering book delves into the complex emotions associated with displacement, separation from home and the challenges of starting anew. Using simple language, Where Do My Roots Go? illustrates how an uprooted plant can still flourish once it's provided with sunlight, water and soil. The same is true for us – even those who leave their home behind can find strength, resilience and happiness when surrounded by people who love and care for them. This book aims to help children recognise and make sense of their emotions, exploring the concept of ‘big feelings’ and asking the question, 'what makes a home, home?’ As a psychoeducational resource, Where Do My Roots Go? offers self-help techniques and encourages mindfulness for parents and caregivers to foster resilience and healing.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Zara is a therapist and mother dedicated to researching the lasting impact of trauma and mind-body connection. Through her work, she advocates for marginalised and under-represented voices, minority groups and refugees. She combines personal experience with professional insight into mental health to create resources that address the gap in psychoeducation for children. Where Do My Roots Go? was inspired by Zara's search for trauma-informed resources for her husband’s family after they migrated from Syria following the civil war. She is hopeful this book will create a safe, explorative space for children and guardians to reclaim their narrative and foster hope.
