Wasim’s family has to leave their home because of the war raging in their homeland. Grandma and Grandpa cannot go with them.

That’s why Wasim is very grateful for the west his grandma sewed for him. He is sure it will keep him safe. That is indeed necessary because the sea is rough and the journey long, until the family finally finds a safe place in the Café Welcome. Mr Hubert helps but the best ideas come from Wasim, helping not only himself but also his father and his new friend Bashir, who is haunted by nightmares. This lovingly illustrated story about fleeing and trauma not only shows what can be used to support children throughtimes of crisis but also how traumatized children can develop resilience.
