The Boy At the Back of the Class by Onjali Q. Raúf

5.0

A brilliant book to start the new year!
It’s a story that is necessary in today’s society, to help children and young people understand the refugee crisis and the many views of countries in Europe.
The protagonist, being only nine, describes the events after meeting a young boy, Ahmet, a refugee who experienced horrors whilst escaping the ongoing war of Syria.

A brilliant story of, courage, acceptance and friendship.
