The Carpet: An Afghan Family Story

This poignant story, about an Afghan refugee child and the family carpet that connects them to home, inspires readers to live and learn in love, not fear.

We sip our tea and talk together,
Ruby cushions of goose feather.
The carpet is for sitting.


The Carpet follows a day in the life of an Afghan refugee child, where every moment revolves around love, family, and the carpet that connects them to home. The carpet is the centerpiece of family life, where meals, stories, laughs, and memories are shared. This moving story, inspired by the author’s life, celebrates what makes a home—no matter where you are. Hardcover, 32 pages.
