There used to be an empty chair at the back of my class, but now a new boy called Ahmet is sitting in it.
He's nine years old (just like me), but he's very strange.
He never talks and never smiles and doesn't like sweets - not even lemon sherbets, which are my favourite!But then I learned the truth: Ahmet really isn't very strange at all.
He's a refugee who's run away from a War.
A real one.
With bombs and fires and bullies that hurt people.
And the more I find out about him, the more I want to help.
That's where my best friends Josie, Michael and Tom come in.
Because you see, together we've come up with a plan.
