What Is a Refugee?
What Is a Refugee? | Elise Gravel
3 posts | 1 read | 8 to read
An accessible picture book that oh-so-simply and graphically introduces the term "refugee" to curious young children to help them better understand the world in which they live. Who are refugees? Why are they called that word? Why do they need to leave their country? Why are they sometimes not welcome in their new country? In this relevant picture book for the youngest children, author-illustrator Elise Gravel explores what it means to be a refugee in bold, graphic illustrations and spare text. This is the perfect tool to introduce an important and timely topic to children.

If you can, track down the February 2021 issue of #NationalGeographic for a thoughtful and heartfelt series of articles and photographs about what makes some women leave their homelands for a better life elsewhere.

TheBookHippie Our library stocks these! Thanks. 4y
Velvetfur I looked this up and have found so much more to read as well! Thank you so much, I hadn't thought previously of looking up NatGeo online! I usually watch something on their TV channel when visiting my parents, hehe 😁 4y

I'm joining the #Read22ForRefugees challenge to help raise money for Refugee Action from 9-30 September!

To reach the UK, refugees are forced to travel 22 dangerous miles across the Channel. To join this 22-day challenge, set yourself a reading challenge around the number 22 - pages, books, or minutes per day. Message Martha (@martha_is_reading) or Eve (@e.f.paterson) on Instagram to get involved. I'm going to read a book every day!

Simple book that will help young readers understand the plight of refugees. It will also foster empathy for those who have had to flee their own countries. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
