Lo straordinario viaggio di Nujeen: Dalla Siria alla Germania in sedia a rotelle per fuggire dalla g

Nujeen Mustafa ha sedici anni e soffre di una grave forma di paralisi cerebrale che l'ha costretta su una sedia a rotelle e le ha impedito di frequentare la scuola pubblica. Ma questo non l'ha fermata: ha imparato l'inglese guardando le soap opera americane trasmesse dalla tv del suo paese e nello stesso modo ha studiato storia, letteratura, scienze. Dimostrando di avere un coraggio da leone, questa adolescente che sogna di incontrare la Regina d'Inghilterra e di diventare astronauta si è messa in viaggio insieme alle sorelle e ha seguito la rotta dei migranti, oltre 6000 chilometri dalla Siria fino al confine con l'Ungheria e poi in Germania. Con voce fresca e originale, Nujeen ci racconta cosa significa crescere in un paese in guerra e cosa si prova a dipendere dagli altri per ogni cosa; ci spiega come la guerra civile abbia distrutto una nazione orgogliosa e abbia smembrato intere famiglie, e soprattutto ci fa capire quanto coraggio occorra per continuare a sorridere e sperare nonostante tutto.

Nujeen: One Girl's Incredible Journey from War-Torn Syria in a Wheelchair

Prize-winning journalist and the co-author of smash New York Times bestseller I Am Malala, Christina Lamb, now tells the inspiring true story of another remarkable young hero: Nujeen Mustafa, a teenager born with cerebral palsy, whose harrowing journey from war-ravaged Syria to Germany in a wheelchair is a breathtaking tale of fortitude, grit, and hope that lends a face to the greatest humanitarian issue of our time, the Syrian refugee crisis. For millions around the globe, sixteen-year-old Nujeen Mustafa embodies the best of the human spirit. Confined to a wheelchair because of her cerebral palsy and denied formal schooling in Syria because of her illness, Nujeen taught herself English by watching American soap operas. When her small town became the epicenter of the brutal fight between ISIS militants and US-backed Kurdish troops in 2014, she and her family were forced to flee. Despite her physical limitations, Nujeen embarked on the arduous trek to safety and a new life. The grueling sixteen-month odyssey by foot, boat, and bus took her across Turkey and the Mediterranean to Greece, through Macedonia to Serbia and Hungary, and finally, to Germany. Yet, in spite of the tremendous physical hardship she endured, Nujeen's extraordinary optimism never wavered. Refusing to give in to despair or see herself as a passive victim, she kept her head high. As she told a BBC reporter, "You should fight to get what you want in this world."Nujeen's positivity and resolve infuses this unforgettable story of one young woman determined to make a better life for herself. Told by acclaimed British foreign correspondent Christina Lamb, Nujeen is a unique and powerful memoir that gives voice to the Syrian refugee crisis, helping us to understand that the world must changeand offering the inspiration to make that change reality.

She will inspire you' MALALA YOUSAFZAI Nujeen Mustafa has cerebral palsy and cannot walk.

As civil war between Assad's forces and ISIS militants broke out around them, Nujeen and her family fled first to her native Kobane, then Turkey before they joined thousands of displaced persons in a journey to Europe and asylum. She wanted to come to Europe, she said, to become an astronaut, to meet the Queen and to learn how to walk.

It is the story of our times told through the incredible bravery of one remarkable girl determined to keep smiling.
