Salma's Long Walk Kathy McKay

Syria is a place that can no longer be called Home. Many people are fleeing from the bombing. Salma with her brothers, mother, and a father (who tells her he is going to find her a husband), decide to walk the many miles to freedom. Salma has heard of girls being educated, and this is what she wants. On the walk she meets many people and makes a friend of a Greek girl. When a chance comes, Salma leaves her family and strikes out with her friend to find Education, Peace and Happiness
