Beautiful storytelling about life, the faith of refugees, losing everything and then finding yourself, the pain that comes with leaving home, and the importance of family and friends along the way. This book is so well-written it makes you feel as though you are right there with the characters. It reminds us what is truly important in this life. Heartbreaking and yet powerful, I wish everyone could read this book.
