The stunning sequel to the award-winning, #1 New York Times bestselling verse novel Inside Out & Back Again

I ache to know how much longer until clouds touch us, ending refugee living.

It's been two years since H

and her family arrived in Alabama as refugees from the Việt Nam War. They've worked hard to make a life for themselves in America, but it hasn't come easy. H

has only just begun to feel settled when Mother decides that the family will move to Texas for a new job.

H

knows how hard starting over is and doesn't want to do it again. But sometimes even an unwanted change can bring opportunity, new friends and a place to call home.

When Clouds Touch Us is a lyrical and compelling story of upheaval, growth and love.
