Bookroo's summary
Ten-year-old Hamid flees war-torn Eritrea with his mother, seeking safety from government threats. In a new country, they confront the daunting task of rebuilding their lives amidst unfamiliar language and culture. Can they find hope and belonging in a world so different from their own? Hamid's journey reveals the resilience and courage of those who must start anew.
