Description
Based on a true story, only some members of a family escape the Armenia genocide and one of them, just a boy during the flight, must return to find a sister who was left behind.
Today my mother put me in charge
of my three young sisters
and our escape from the Turkish soldiers
who were taking over our town.
In 1920, 10-year-old Bedros fled Armenia with his young sisters, grandmother, and uncle to escape the Turkish soldiers invading their town. But in the confusion, Bedros lost sight of the adults and was left alone to protect his siblings. Hungry, cold, and overwhelmed with responsibility, Bedros failed to remember his promise to his mother...
Told in verse, suspenseful and heart-rending, The Honey Jar depicts a journey from desperation to freedom, anchored in Bedros' promise to return to his native land and to find the one he left behind. His story will touch the hearts of families everywhere especially those who have experienced the longing for a new life.
