One boy's flight out of Syria. A story of bravery and solidarity in the face of despair, based on the experiences of real Syrian refugees.

One boy's flight out of Syria. Based on the experiences of real Syrian families.

Ghalib doesn’t want to leave his home, but Syria has become too dangerous, and his family has no choice but to flee. Together they start out on a terrible journey that leads them through dark and dangerous places. They come under fire; they are fleeced by illegal border-breakers; they experience the wretched and hopeless life of a refugee camp. And they still have to face the perils of a voyage in a boat that is far from seaworthy.

Based on the experiences of real Syrian families, A Dangerous Crossing is a story of bravery and solidarity in the face of despair.

Jane Mitchell has written several books for children and young people.

She works in disability provision in Ireland and travels widely, including recently to the refugee camp in Calais.
