Young Reed: Refugees

Product Description

Throughout history, refugees have moved between countries and continents in search of freedom and a better life. Australia, being an island continent, is not immune to people from around the world seeking refugee status. This was the case post-World War II when Australia took in thousands of European refugees and immigrants again after the Vietnam War in the mid-1970s and into the New Millennium after the wars in Iraw and Afghanistan and most recently, Syria.
Refugees The Story of Displaced Peoples, by teacher and author Jason K Foster, places a difficult and often divisive social and political issue into a broader context. It provides simple, easy-to-access information for a younger generation of learners.
