Illegal - Eoin Colfer

This is a powerful and timely story about one boy's epic journey
across Africa to Europe, a graphic novel for all children with glorious
colour artwork throughout. From Eoin Colfer, previously Irish Children's
Laureate, and the team behind his bestselling Artemis Fowl graphic
novels.

Ebo: alone.

His sister left months ago. Now
his brother has disappeared too, and Ebo knows it can only be to make
the hazardous journey to Europe.

Ebo's epic journey takes him
across the Sahara Desert to the dangerous streets of Tripoli, and
finally out to the merciless sea. But with every step he holds on to his
hope for a new life, and a reunion with his sister.
