Book Synopsis
Winner of the 2017 New York City Big Book AwardIn The Map of Good Memories, a young girl takes time to remember her home before her and her family must flee their war-torn city.Zoe had lived in the city since she was born. She knew every building, every park, every corner of the city. When the war broke out, Zoe, like many others, had to say goodbye to her home and leave without knowing when she might return. Zoe has so many good memories of her city. There was her grandparents' house, which was a shelter full of dreams and games, her old school where she met her friends and loved learning newthings, and of course, the downtown park, where she'd spent many Sunday mornings there, playing on the swings, listening to people playing music, and riding her bike.Just before her and her family leave, Zoe spreads the map of the city on a table and marks all the places where she was truly happy, with the certainty that they will always accompany her.

florida question - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Suggested Age is 4-8. No, the topics are far too political for this age group. More like 10+. Also, there are passive Jewish (Author isn't stating the true intentions of the book and concealing the context) references throughout the book with an Anne Frank quote that provide no context.
