The Girl from Aleppo: Nujeen's Escape from War to Freedom by Nujeen Mustafa

4.0

A simple powerful story from Nujeen, a disabled teen who flees Syria as a refugee. The writing is straightforward and flowed well. It puts a human voice behind the millions of refugees. I tried to put myself in her spot and it blows me away how much she went through just trying to find safety and a home. It was also filled with a lot of facts about Syria and what was going on in the world at the time, which was interesting, but I loved it when it was just Nujeen's voice, sharing how she felt.
I think this is a good, quick book for anyone to read to gain compassion for the plight of refugees across the world.
