Refugee Boy by Benjamin Zephaniah
A young boy from East Africa arrives alone in Britain after political violence tears his family apart and must navigate the harsh realities of the asylum system, school life, and hostile attitudes while separated from his parents. Through encounters with kind strangers, unsympathetic officials, and everyday acts of cruelty and kindness, he struggles to hold on to his identity and hope, learning resilience and the complexities of belonging as he fights for a place to call home.
