Home of the Brave by Katherine Applegate
4.0

Beautiful!! A verse novel told by Kek, a recent refugee to the snowy US from war torn Sudan. As he tries to understand his new country and make a new life for himself, he communicates such hope. Some parts are funny in his misunderstandings, but there is real insight into the difficulties faced, especially through the character of his cousin. Lovely!!!
