Full Description
No matter where you started,
leaving was hard - so was the journey.
And when you finally reached safety,
you were hungry, thirsty, worn-out.
Ready for rest.
Taking Flight offers an intimate look at being a refugee by following three different children. From the mountains of Tibet, the cotton fields in Syria, and a city in Ukraine, families pack their bags and say goodbye to their homes as they leave in search of safety. Although they don't know what the future holds - maybe an extended time in a refugee camp or a long journey to a place with a new language - they hope that it will be a place they can call home.
Told in second person, directly addressing a displaced child, and with deeply evocative illustrations from Nicolò Carozzi, Taking Flight is a timely and necessary story that offers gentle reassurance and hope for readers.
