The Doll



The Doll

Written and Illustrated by Nhung N. Tran-Davies and Ravy Puth
Published by Second Story Press

A simple act of kindness welcomes two little girls, both refugees, to a new home generations apart.

A young girl and her family arrive in an airport in a new country. They are refugees, migrants who have travelled across the world to find safety. Strangers greet them, and one of them gives the little girl a doll. Decades later, that little girl is grown up and she has the chance to welcome a group of refugees who are newly arrived in her adopted country. To the youngest of them, a little girl, she gives a doll, knowing it will help make her feel welcome. Inspired by real events.
