Hi - thank you for sharing your father's very moving, important , and prescient words.

I did some volunteer work with refuges in Germany and Serbia in 2017. After my return, I put together a small book for young readers to introduce them to the refugee crisis.

Perhaps you could take a look at it and tell me what you think?

Thanks for any feedback you might have.

Sincerely,
