A review by books_with_tutusandsons
The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri
5.0
We think we know. We have our opinions, our views, our prejudices. But we dont know. Not really. Not at all.
We need stories like this to open our eyes. To see the things we dont want to see. To see the world behind our pink glasses.
Stories like this should be told. Stories like this should be known. Stories like this should make us better people and make us more helpful, more kind, more involved.
Please read this book. Its heartbreaking, its honest and real. It will show you the other side of the refugee stories. The human one. It will make you cry just as well as make angry at humans and the horrors they're able to do. But it will make you open your eyes and maybe change, just a little.
