Josef is a Jewish boy living in 1930s Nazi Germany. With the threat of concentration camps looming, he and his family board a ship bound for the other side of the world.... Isabel is a Cuban girl in 1994. With riots and unrest plaguing her country, she and her family set out on a raft, hoping to find safety in America.... Mahmoud is a Syrian boy in 2015.

This is a really good book. The only thing that I didn’t like was the readers though
This book had my eyes full of tears as I was vacuuming and doing laundry, etc. My wife sees me and says what is wrong with you, you're just vacuuming. 😂😭 I was too choked up to be able to explain. All I could gulp out was, "this book!"
