With fear in his eyes, Semoj watches the passing scenery. The peaceful fields and meadows are frighteningly differently from anything he has ever seen. Mrs. Mason is taking Semoj and brother Malik to a new life, far away from the drab apartments and filthy sidewalks that they have always called home. They are going away from their mom and all the old familiar life.

Although Semoj and Malik don't know it yet, they will soon be facing one of the biggest challenges of their young lives—adjustment to a new family, a new home, and new friends. And not only that, but their new family lives by the rules of God's Book, a Book that Semoj and Malik know nothing about.

A New Family for Semoj will provide a clearer understanding of less fortunate children and their responses to their surroundings. It is written especially for children who face these or similar challenges, as well as for the families which welcome them into their hearts and homes. Others will also enjoy this interesting and well-written story.
