Zaineb Hates the Snow

Zaineb, nine, lives in Tunis since her father’s death. When her mother wants to start a new life with a man living in Canada, who also has a daughter, Zaineb wants none of it. She does not trust her stepfather at all, she doesn’t trust this new country either, and she doesn’t like snow.
