Perfect for followers from the Guy in the Striped Pyjamas. This is a gorgeous, stunning and deeply shifting story about a refugee boy who has spent his life time living in a detention center. This novel reminds us all of the need for freedom, wish, and the energy of a story to speak for anyone who’s ever struggled to discover a safe home.

‘…a special book’ – Morris Gleitzman, writer of the acclaimed ONCE series

Born inside a refugee camp, about The Bone tissue Sparrow: a refugee novel all Subhi knows of the world is that he’s at least 19 fence diamond jewelry high, the nice Spencer never stay lengthy, and during the night he dreams that the sea finds its method to his tent, getting with it unusual treasures. And one day it brings him Jimmie.

Holding a notebook that she’s unable to read and wearing a sparrow made out of bone tissue around her neck – both talismans of her family’s past and the mother she’s dropped – Jimmie hits up an unlikely friendship with Subhi beyond the fence.

As he reads aloud the tale of how Jimmie’s family had become, both children uncover the need for their own stories in writing their futures.
