Returning to Colombia (Library Binding) (ISBN-13: 9780778764861)

Andre's family was resettled in Ecuador after rebels stormed their village in Colombia. Although they were safe, life wasn't easy and Andre's father had a hard time finding work. Suffering discrimination in their country of refuge, and with the situation improved in Colombia since the 2016 peace deal, his family makes the decision to return home. There, they work hard to regain their life and are reunited with a brother and son who had been taken by rebels. Readers get vital insight into how some refugees return to their homelands when - and if - it is safe to do so.
