Lucie, The smell of silence is an inspiring story for young and young at heart readers. Lucie shares her life story while she is stuck in a rescue boat crossing the ocean from the Middle East to Europe after she has lost everything back home because war has destroyed her life overnight.My Voice for the Voiceless: War does not only destroy humans but also animal’s lives. It also destroys the beauty of nature and sets countries back from improving for decades if not centuries. Unfortunately, anyone can become homeless. Anyone can become stateless. Anyone can become an undocumented refugee. When you lose everything you have and everyone you love, there is only one thing that keeps you moving forward: hope and the belief in a better and safer future. This is the message of this educational story for the Lily4Refugees Project. Lucie is also available in German.
