A review by lattelibrarian
Escape from Syria by Samya Kullab

4.0

Flashing back from present to past, Escape from Syria juxtaposes the different manners of living and existing in Canada and Aleppo.  Following a family from the war-ridden Aleppo and their eventual immigration, this book offers a narrative that has become all too real for many Syrians.

With colorful illustrations, good graphics, and a fantastic storyline, this book takes your heart and tugs it.  It's emotional, strange, and overall an engaging, fictional account of what too many are experiencing right now.
