Every Australian should read this book, but particularly Australians who don’t believe we should open our arms and welcome refugees into our country: I would hope this would change their minds.
This is a story of a family who almost lose everything to escape a war ravished country to start a new life for their children. Even as they worked incredibly hard to make ends meet, they were always extremely grateful for the opportunities that life in Australia offers them.
An extraordinary story, told without hyperbole and with an eye to always looking on the bright side of life.
This is appropriate for children to read, from Year 7+.
