A powerful and necessary illustrated book - the journey of a child forced to become a refugee when war destroys everything around them. Imagine if, on an ordinary day, war arrived. Imagine your city turned to ruins. Imagine starting a long and difficult journey - all alone. Imagine finding no welcome at the end of this journey. Then imagine a child giving you something small but very, very precious... When the government refused to allow 3000 child refugees into the country in 2016, Nicola Davies was so angry that she wrote a poem. This poem started a campaign for which artists contributed with chair designs, symbolizing a place in a classroom, education, kindness, the hope for a future. The poem has become this book, which has captivating illustrations by Rebecca Cobb, proving to be a powerful tool to explain the ongoing refugee crisis to younger readers.
