Barefoot Heart: Stories of Migrant Children is a powerful and moving collection of stories that gives voice to the experiences of migrant children. These stories are both heartbreaking and hopeful, and they shed light on the challenges that migrant children face as they journey to a new life.

The book is divided into four sections: "Leaving Home," "The Journey," "Arrival," and "Settling In." Each section features stories from children who have experienced different aspects of the migrant journey. Some of the stories are from children who have been separated from their families, while others are from children who have been reunited with their loved ones. Some of the stories are from children who have faced discrimination and racism, while others are from children who have found acceptance and support.

Despite the challenges that they face, the children in Barefoot Heart are all resilient and hopeful. They are determined to make a better life for themselves and their families, and they are full of dreams for the future. Their stories are a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope.

Barefoot Heart is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the experiences of migrant children. It is a powerful and moving book that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
