I do wish the pages were more sturdy, perhaps thicker or with some sort of coating. Anyway, the students seemed interested as some of it may have echoed their own experiences. I know it's probably not the happiest experience, thinking about what they've gone through, but the discussion of the book, I think, made them realize that they are not alone.
Given that their English proficiency is quite low (absolute beginners), this book was a bit of a challenge to them. Since they're high school students, I found that using this in my ESL class was appropriate.
The texts were a little small as well, so reading together as a group was not as convenient. I'd probably not use it with younger children, especially if their refugee memories are quite recent.
I have two refugee students in my ESL class. When I saw this book, I thought it would be something I could share with them. Even though there were only a couple of sentences per page, it's actually still quite wordy.
