Description
The Boy at the Back of the Class tells the story of a class where a new boy named Ahmet sits alone at the back. Ahmet is a refugee who has run away from war, and the more the narrator learns about him, the more they want to help. With the help of their friends, the narrator comes up with a plan to help Ahmet find his family.
On a typical school day, Ahmet's arrival sparks a chain of events that highlights the importance of friendship and kindness. As the story unfolds, the narrator and their friends work together to support Ahmet, even if it means taking risks. This heartwarming and humorous tale sheds light on the refugee crisis from a child's perspective.
With beautiful illustrations by Pippa Curnick, this book is a powerful exploration of empathy and compassion. A beautifully illustrated edition is now available.
