Escape from Aleppo by N.H. Senzai

5.0

I really appreciate how actual people and events frame this fictional story that manages to dance that lovely mix of specific and universal. I usually get lost in books that jump in time, but here I did not. Again, there is artistry in making things seem simple and how they should, of course, be.

Vague spoiler on ending:

A happy-enough ending makes for a book that can comfortably be put into the hands of most middle grade readers.
