This story was beautiful. Nayeri is an expert storyteller who tells his journey as a child refugee intermixed with a boatload of funny “poop stories”. This book is a worthwhile read for readers from middle school through adulthood, as I think everyone can learn much through sitting with Daniel as he tells you his story.
