Amel: A storybook for refugee kids finds its way and needs your support

A very nice and interesting initiative has started by two Greek artists, who go by the names Margarita Amorova and Ru-sii.

They are making a no-words children’s book addressing the refugee crisis, with the goal to distribute it for free to refugee children in Greece.

The book is the story of Amel, “a little bunny who has fled their country and, through their journey, is determined to establish a new era of hope in the world”

As its makers put it, “It will be a no-words vivid visual story which will mainly address young audiences of different countries within the refugee communities residing in Greece at the moment, who, due to their young age, cannot read or comprehend the same language. The purpose of the book is to help children cope with Refugee Trauma and all the stressful experiences they have – and unfortunately, may still have to face until their reach their final destination. Or at least, we hope that this book will entertain these kids during their journey to their own ‘Promised Land’.”
