Full Description
This book opens a window into the world of people who are forced to flee their homeland to survive: refugees. To understand this world, you'll read the words, stories, hopes, expectations, and often despairs of the refugees themselves. Danielle Vella takes the reader along on her travels from Africa to the Middle East to Europe to the US to meet and interview refugees —and tell their stories.
