"There are stories woven into the essence of stars, if you know how to look. Be like a star, let your light shine. Let your story shine. Because stories will lead us home."
Days in the refugee camp are the same: boring, hungry, and tense. There is not enough food in the camp, nothing to occupy oneself with, and no medicine needed. Omar, who has spent most of his life in the camp, sees the opportunity to go to school as a glimmer of hope for himself and his brother Hasan. But it also means leaving his brother, who cannot speak, and his only memory of his family, alone. Omar and his brother must wait, wait, and wait some more before they can start the new life they dream of.
Omar, who has spent his life struggling with the difficulties he faces and protecting the things he values with all his might, carries his family and home in his heart wherever he goes and no matter who is with him.
When the Stars Scatter is an impressive graphic novel in which Omar Mohammed tells his own story with all his sincerity, written by award-winning comic book writer Victoria Jameson, and where expectation and hope meet.
