About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts asking difficult questions about global news, refugees, or why families are forced to leave their homes during conflict. It serves as a gentle yet honest bridge to understanding the human side of displacement, focusing on the unbreakable bonds of family rather than political complexities. This story follows Leo and his family as they flee their village to find safety, highlighting the quiet courage found in ordinary people. It is particularly effective for children aged 10 to 14 who are developing empathy for others' struggles or who are experiencing a major life transition themselves. Parents will appreciate how the narrative balances the harsh reality of being a refugee with a persistent sense of hope and the importance of looking out for one another.
