When Stars Are Scattered
FROM SARAH:
I'm not usually a big graphic novel reader, but this one is a perfect exception. And you know what? I think it's even better on audio. One of the best audio book experiences I've ever had, in fact! It's an immersive dip into Omar Mohamed's true story of being a Somali refugee that will capture your heart. The publisher recommends this one for ages 8-12, but I think it's probably better for ages 12+. Or just listen to it yourself. You'll be glad you did!
FROM THE PUBLISHER:
A National Book Award Finalist, this remarkable graphic novel is about growing up in a refugee camp, as told by a former Somali refugee to the Newbery Honor-winning creator of Roller Girl.
