Maya loves her Nutella sandwiches and her group of friends at Maple Hill Elementary. Every day is the same, and that is how she likes it. But everything changes when a new girl named Zahra moves to town. Zahra brings a different lunch filled with rice balls, hummus, and other foods Maya has never seen before.
