Genre:
A swamp on the outskirts of town, is home to two wild blue-billed ducks. One day huge machinery began to move towards the swamp, which resulted in water loss. Refugees tells the story of the duck's misadventures in trying to find a safe place to live. This book is quite detailed using descriptive language, and has a powerful meaning behind the story. Although it has a lack of words and has big pictures that illustrate the text, this book would be most suitable for middle-upper primary. This is because it would be hard for younger students to be able to relate the two ducks with the lifestyle of a refugee.
This book would be suitable for a resource in an English, or Geography lesson if looking at refugees.
