"When a young girl helps tend to her grandmother's garden, she begins to notice things that make her curious. Why does her grandmother have long, braided hair and beautifully colored clothing? Why does she speak another language and spend so much time with her family?

When We Were Alone is a story about a difficult time in history, and, ultimately, one of empowerment and strength."--
