نقد و بررسی

missmunch - Of Beetles and Angles is about, refugee Mawi Asgedom and his family. The book is about their family fleeing from East Africa's civil war seeking a better life in America. They story is true and written by Mawi himself. He describes the challenges of a new language, racial discrimination and working hard and treating everyone as Angels. Eventually leading Mawi to graduate from Harvard University. I enjoyed this book, as it helped me understand the life of a refugee and the challenges. I recommend this book to all of my friends.

Starred review from September 2, 2002
In 1983, at age seven, the author and his family arrived in this country, having fled the Eritrean and Ethiopian conflict. "This earnest account of Asgedom's life up to his graduation from Harvard is peppered with powerful moments," wrote PW. Ages 10-up.
