Now in a full-length book, the New York Times Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic story of a refugee family who fled the civil war in Syria to make a new life in America

After escaping a Syrian prison, Ibrahim Aldabaan and his family fled the country to seek protection in America. Among the few refugees to receive visas, they finally landed in JFK airport on November 8, 2016, Election Day. The family had reached a safe harbor, but woke up to the world of Donald Trump and a Muslim ban that would sever them from the grandmother, brothers, sisters, and cousins stranded in exile in Jordan.

Welcome to the New World tells the Aldabaans' story. Resettled in Connecticut with little English, few friends, and even less money, the family of seven strive to create something like home. As a blur of language classes, job-training programs, and the fearsome first days of high school (with hijab) give way to normalcy, the Aldabaans are lulled into a sense of security. A white van cruising slowly past the house prompts some unease, which erupts into full terror when the family receives a death threat and is forced to flee and start all over yet again. The America in which the Aldabaans must make their way is by turns kind and ignorant, generous and cruel, uplifting and heartbreaking.

Delivered with warmth and intimacy, Jake Halpern and Michael Sloan's Welcome to the New World is a wholly original view of the immigrant experience, revealing not only the trials and successes of one family but showing the spirit of a town and a country, for good and bad.

Perfume is super strong
Size: 2.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
It is so heavily perfumed it makes me sick, but the scent is nice. I can’t handle putting it on so I can’t really tell you if it’s affective for a barrier.

Get a different scent!
Size: 2.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The smell is terrible. I bought the coconut & vanilla first, and that one is great. Smells good and lasts long. Thought I'd try a different scent, so I bought the raspberry & rose... it smelled rotten!! Not sure if I got a bad batch, but it was truly horrific. Threw it out immediately. I even put it on the back of my hand to test if the dry down is better; the rotten smell was still there.
