If you did experience this, you and the main character in this book are similar. When Saya’s mom goes away she would always listens to her mama’s tape ever since her mother went to Sunshine Correctional, it’s a prison where women without paper go. She lives in America with her father. She wanted mama home, but she needs the right papers.Next, Saya and her father go see her mother. Afterwards, Saya and papa went back home. She then earns a tape recorder from her mother. She then visits, again. After, Saya asked her father if she could write letters to her mother. She sent her letters to the prison. As a result, a woman told her and her father if she could publish their writing.They ended up in the news then somewhere where they didn’t really expect, the courtroom. The judge said something that surprised some people in some way.Most people won’t believe this but some people will when I say: Saya is a brave girl. She was brave enough to be in TV answering questions without a hint of fear in her voice. She was determine to say what she said, even though she was nervous about being on television she still said it. An example in the story that shows that Saya was brave is when she says “I miss Mama and how I wish she can be with us again.”. This example shows that she is brave because she said it with a lump on her throat so she was nervous but still said it to a person she doesn’t know, also she said it to the world that is watching the news.There is a part that will be disliked by some of the people, it may look silly when the illustrations showed Saya being taken away from her mom. This is because the illustration looks weird, that I can’t take this seriously anymore. They could’ve put those arrows to show that she is moving her arms back and forth. In the text it shows Saya with three arms going up and down. It would have been better if they drew it with drawing movement which would’ve made sense, and for your information this is a heads up.Either way, I recommend this because is says about separation and family. This is good for people that love happy endings because it says in the end it had Saya, her father, and her mother all happy again, either separated or together, who knows you’ll have to read it. This would be a good book for ages 4+, this is because this book is good for understanding how it feels when a part of a family is gone. It’s good for the kids to know how it feels and maybe they will learn how to deal with it like how Saya learned how to deal with it, but not fully. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Folklores are the best *by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 10, 2022* Great way to explain or introduce your child to immigration and how it can affect families. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Very moving *by A***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 24, 2018* This book is really beautiful and touching. I’m a teacher, but I don’t know if I could ever read this book to a class without starting to cry. Maybe I could share it with my older students, but be prepared for a wave of emotions with this story. However, even if I keep it for myself, I’m very glad it’s in my collection. The message of empowerment is so strong, and stories such as these are so important. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/17608016-mamas-nightingale-a-story-of-immigration-and-separation](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/17608016-mamas-nightingale-a-story-of-immigration-and-separation) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
