Kek come from Africa. In America, he sees snowfor the first time and feels its sting. He's never walked on ice and he falls. He wonders if the people of this new place will be like the winter - cold and unkind. In Africa, Kek lived with his mohter, father and brother. But only he and his mother have survived, and now she's missing. Kek is on his own. Slowly, he makes friends, a girl who is in foster care, an old woman who owns a rundown farm, and a cow whose name means "family" in his native language. As Kek awaits word of his mother's fate, he weathers the tough Minnesota winter by finding warmth in his new friendships, strength in his memories, and belief in his new country.
