Even though this book is geared toward middle schooled aged kids, I enjoyed it. It tells the story of Meli, a 12 year old girl, who is forced out of her home with her family to become refugees in another country. In some ways, it has parallels to today's happenings in the world. You can ask yourself, what if this happened to me, what would I and MY family do?
