  • Interest Level: Grade 3 - Grade 6

A refugee's journey does not end after they escape conflict, persecution, and displacement in their home country. Six new titles continue the stories of fictional refugees featured in the award-winning Leaving My Homeland series. After the Journey is a thoughtful and important look at how refugee children and their families face and overcome challenges after fleeing their homelands. Each fictional story is interwoven with accessible, nonfiction text, which updates readers on the current conflict in that country and ways in which new countries offer support to newcomers. Discussion prompts at the end of each book support understanding and encourage critical thinking. Free downloadable Teacher's Guide available.
