For many refugees the alphabet represents the start of a new language and a new future, but Anisa's Alphabet is different.
A poignant and highly imaginative telling of one girl's story which will appeal to children and adults alike...
Come with Anisa, and see things through her eyes.
In this picture book, Anisa takes the reader though the alphabet, describing her journey from an unnamed war-torn country to a refugee camp, then on to an overcrowded boat towards supposed freedom and security.
