This is a must-read book. It's a quick and easy read despite the heavy themes.
Abu Bakr's story is a source of hope for those who have endured war and are seeking a safe haven for their loved ones, a revelation for those who do not understand the gravity of the refugee crisis in different parts of the world, and an inspiration for those who dedicate their time and skill teaching English to refugees, helping them understand and navigate their new surroundings.
While war is a prominent theme in this book, it also emphasizes the importance of family and resilience.
