Heart breaking story of two brothers trying to make their way to Europe for a better life. A middle grade graphic novel that doesn’t shy away from the dangers these hopeful people endure.

Beautifully drawn panels for a heartbreaking story. Told through flashbacks/forwards, which may not be for everybody.
