520    "A young immigrant girl joins her aunt and uncle in a new 
       country that is unfamiliar to her. She struggles with 
       loneliness, with a fierce longing for the culture and 
       familiarity of home, until one day, her aunt takes her on 
       a walk. As the duo strolls through their city park, the 
       girl's aunt begins to tell her an old myth, and a story 
       within the story begins. A long time ago, a group of 
       refugees arrived on a foreign shore. The local king met 
       them, determined to refuse their request for refuge. But 
       there was a language barrier, so the king filled a glass 
       with milk and pointed to it as a way of saying that the 
       land was full and couldn't accommodate the strangers. Then,
       the leader of the refugees dissolved sugar in the glass of
       milk. His message was clear: Like sugar in milk, our 
       presence in your country will sweeten your lives. The king
       embraced the refugee, welcoming him and his people. The 
       folktale depicted in this book was a part of author Thrity
       Umrigar's Zoroastrian upbringing as a Parsi child in India,
       but resonates for children of all backgrounds, especially 
       those coming to a new homeland" --Amazon.com.
