A moving and stunningly illustrated exploration of the refugee experience, through the eyes of those most impacted: children
No matter where you started,
leaving was hard—so was the journey.
And when you finally reached safety,
you were hungry, thirsty, worn-out.
Ready for rest.
Taking Flight offers an intimate look at being a refugee by following three different children. From the mountains of Tibet, the cotton fields in Syria, and a city in Ukraine, families pack their bags and say goodbye to their homes as they leave in search of safety. Although they don’t know what the future holds—maybe an extended time in a refugee camp or a long journey to a place with a new language—they hope that it will be a place they can call home.
Told in second person, directly addressing a displaced child, and with deeply evocative illustrations from Nicolò Carozzi, Taking Flight is a timely and necessary story that offers gentle reassurance and hope for readers.
