Description
Giant waves crashed down on our little boat. I was terrified but my mum hugged me tight and told me, "Everything will be okay. Don't worry, it will be okay." Anh Do's story of escape from war-torn Vietnam is one of survival and hope. His family's journey to Australia was fraught with danger - overcrowded boats, murderous pirates, and terrifying storms. Yet they persevered, driven by the desire for a better life. In suburban Australia, life was not without its challenges, but Anh found solace in his loving extended family, friends, and laughter. Despite the difficulties he faced as a young boy with no English, Anh's story is one of triumph and resilience. The Little Refugee tells an uplifting tale of one person's journey to overcome adversity and find happiness.
