En esta historia, basada en los recuerdos de su infancia durante la II Guerra Mundial, Uri Shulevitz cuenta cómo un mapa lo llevó, con la ayuda de su imaginación, muy lejos del hambre, la miseria y el sufrimiento. As he spends hours studying his father's world map, a young boy escapes the hunger and misery of refugee life. Based on the author's childhood in Kazakhstan, where he lived as a Polish refugee during World War II.
