Publisher's Synopsis
The Day I Became Two Countries
Author: Suras Castelbranco First Edition
In this beautifully illustrated and emotionally rich picture book, a mixed-race boy and girl-twins or close friends-explore what it means to belong to more than one place, culture, and language.
Torn between two homelands, they face questions that don't always have easy answers: "Where are you really from?" "Why that flag?" "What's that food?" But through playful adventures, heartwarming traditions, and brave moments of self-expression, they come to realize that they aren't split in half-they're whole. Two stories, two songs, one heart.
Designed for readers aged 4-12, The Day I Became Two Countries blends lyrical storytelling with vibrant cartoon imagery, celebrating identity, family, and the beautiful power of being both. A perfect read for children navigating multiple cultures-or anyone who's ever felt in between.
