A note for parents

This graphic memoir tells the true story of Omar Mohamed's childhood in a Somali refugee camp, co-created with illustrator Victoria Jamieson. While it addresses serious themes like war, displacement, and loss, it does so with age-appropriate restraint and ultimately emphasizes resilience, brotherhood, education, and hope. The book offers significant educational and emotional value about a real humanitarian crisis, presented through a child's perspective.
