On Fragile Waves by E. Lily Yu

4.0

This story follows siblings Firuzeh and Nour. Their family flees Afghanistan and makes their way to Australia by way of Indonesia.

Firuzeh tries to keep focused on the positive by telling stories steeped in folklore. It works only for so long before the magic wears off.

This shines a light on the life of refugees not only while trekking to a new destination, but life in a camp and the highs and lows of assimilating into a new life.
