In this graphic novel, we meet Omar. Omar is a refugee, a person forced to flee his home. He was from Somalia but now lives in a camp in Kenya with thousands of others in tents. He has taken care of his younger brother, Hassan, since they fled. It is based on a true story - Omar is the co-author of this book. We learn of the struggles of refugees as well as the community that is built there to support one another. It is tragic and sad that people live like this indefinitely. But is also a story of hope and family. (GN JAM)
