Description

Orphaned in the brutal Balkans conflict, thirteen-year-old Josef is forced to flee dramatically through the forest to the border. Frightened, angry, and deeply traumatised, he then suffers the uncertainty and boredom of a refugee camp before finally being plucked to safety in Australia by an uncle he never knew existed.

Cast adrift from everything familiar to him, Josef must battle with a new culture, a new language, and a strange landscape. His strength of character and quiet determination save him from desolation as he forges new friendships and discovers a world of healing in a native animal refuge.

No More Borders for Josef is an emotionally charged and uplifting story that highlights the resilience of youth in the face of trauma and adversity.
