The book I read this month was “Refugee” by Alan Gratz. I haven’t finished this book but i am on page 235.. there is a family with a mom, dad, 1 year old baby girl, a ten year old boy, and a teenage boy. The main character is the teenage boy named Mahmoud. Him and his families apartment in Syria gets obliterated by a missile and they decide to head for Germany and they go from Syria and drive to turkey, once they get to turkey they stay in a refugee camp and wait for some smugglers to put them on a boat to Libya and they wait weeks and eventually they get a text and they go to the dock expecting a boat but then they see a Duffy with about 50 people waiting for it. During their trip to Libya the crash in a bunch of rocks and the Duffy explodes, they have to stay in the freezing cold water in the middle of the night. Eventually they hear another boat and Mahmoud grabs on to it and his mom and they have to give away there baby girl to a stranger to keep her safe, and after hours of waiting a Libyan boat picked them and there dad and Brother out of the water. The get to Libya and take a ferry to Athens and the make there way to Germany.
