Vietnam-born author Thanhha Lai bursts onto the literary scene with Inside Out & Back Again-her National Book Award-winning debut. Written in rich, free-verse poems, this moving tale follows a young Vietnamese girl as she leaves her war-torn homeland for America in 1975. With Saigon about to fall to the communists, 10-year-old HA, her mother, and brothers are forced to flee their beloved city and head to the United States. But living in a new country isn't easy for HA, and she finds adapting to its strange customs ever challenging. source: www.recordedbooks.com/title-details/9781464020988

Review of 'Inside out and back again' on 'Goodreads'

Short, journal format story of a 10 year old girl living through the Tet Offensive and fleeing Saigon.

Very important, especially for anyone who works with refugees.

If you like this, you'll like Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini, and vice versa. That one is a normal novel though.
