Home of the Brave
Did you ever wonder what it would be like to come to Minnesota from another country? How about a country that never saw snow? The main character in this story is a refugee from a country in Africa. He is in the United States because of the violence in his own country and he misses his parents and older brother. Fortunately he has an aunt and cousin he can live with here. With all the tragedy in this young person's life, there are funny moments in the book because of the way he describes things that are very common to us. Kek, the protagonist tells his story in a unique style and the words paint an amazing picture. Katherine Applegate is the author of this award winning book.
