Inspired by the author’s experience, this stunning novel in verse, sequel to the award-winning #1 bestseller Inside Out and Back Again, picks up two years after Hà and her family arrive in Alabama as refugees from the Vietnam War, and Newbery Honor author Rajani LaRocca said "is a gorgeous book about upheaval, the strength of family, and fiercely reaching for the future."

Two years ago, Hà and her family arrived in Alabama as refugees from the Vietnam War. They’ve worked hard to make a life for themselves in the US, but it hasn’t come easy. Hà has only just started to feel settled when Mother decides that the family will move to Texas for a new job. Hà knows how hard it is to start over and doesn’t want to have to do it again. But sometimes even an unwanted change can bring a good opportunity.

This lyrical and compelling sequel to the National Book Award Medalist and Newbery Honor winning and #1 New York Times bestselling novel Inside Out and Back Again follows Hà and her family through another year of upheaval, growth, and love.
