Description of Pictures: Alan Gratz, Katherine Marsh -- In Gratz's "Refugee," we follow the stories of three families seeking asylum at different times in history. Historically accurate with suspense and emotion, this novel expands our understanding of the difficult situations people have faced over time. In Marsh's "Nowhere Boy," a 14 year old American boy befriends a Syrian orphan while temporarily living in Brussels.
