THE TRUE STORY OF HOW ONE BOY DID HIS PART TO END THE SYRIAN REGIME

A 2024 YALSA Top Ten Great Graphic Novel for Teens - An NPR Best Book of 2023 - A 2023 NCSS Notable Social Studies Book

"Inspiring and exciting, powerful and very poignant" --Anderson Cooper

★ "[A] gripping narrative, told with great immediacy" --Horn Book, starred review

★ "Highly recommended." ―School Library Journal, starred review

"A powerful true story that demonstrates the power of one young person determined to change the world" -- Victoria Jamieson, coauthor of When Stars Are Scattered

A teenage boy risks his life to tell the truth in this gripping graphic memoir by youth activist Muhammad Najem and CNN producer Nora Neus.

Muhammad Najem was only eight years old when the war in Syria began. He was thirteen when his beloved Baba, his father, was killed in a bombing while praying. By fifteen, Muhammad didn't want to hide anymore--he wanted to act. He was determined to reveal what families like his were enduring in Syria: bombings by their own government and days hiding in dark underground shelters.

Armed with the camera on his phone and the support of his family, he started reporting on the war using social media. He interviewed other kids like him to show what they hope for and dream about. More than anything, he did it to show that Syrian kids like his toddler brother and infant sister, are just like kids in any other country. Despite unimaginable loss, Muhammad was always determined to document the humanity of the Syrian people. Eventually, the world took notice.

This tenderly illustrated graphic memoir is told by Muhammad himself along with CNN producer Nora Neus, who helped break Muhammad's story and bring his family's plight to an international audience.
