The Little Refugee by Anh Do

A young boy and his family flee war-torn Vietnam in a crowded boat, facing storms, sickness and danger as they search for safety; through fear and hardship they rely on one another and the kindness of strangers, eventually reaching Australia and beginning to rebuild their lives, learn a new language and find hope. Told with warmth and gentle humor, the story celebrates courage, family resilience and gratitude amid difficult beginnings.
