Alone: The Journeys of Three Young Refugees

"The critically acclaimed documentary Seuls is reinterpreted as a fully illustrated adaptation for young readers. Traveling on your own when you’re a kid is difficult. Traveling as a refugee without your parents to a country where you don’t even speak the language? Unthinkable – and it happens every day. The stories of three kids from Iran, Burundi and Uganda, respectively, are thrown into sharp relief when their narratives are illustrated on the page. It’s so gripping, young readers may completely forget the book they are reading isn’t fictional. (For ages 8 to 12)"
