And the walls came down / by Da Costa, Denise(Author of And the walls came down),author.;
"Just before the demolition of her childhood home in east Toronto, Delia Ellis returns to retrieve her beloved diary. Using it as a compass, she rediscovers life as a precocious teen growing up in the nineties. Delia's writings reveal her anxieties following a move to Don Mount Court, a Toronto government housing complex, where she struggles to navigate life with an overprotective Jamaican mother and her father's inept replacement, "Neville the nuisance." Delia's troubles compound when she enlists her naive younger sister in a scheme to reunite their parents and recapture the idealistic life she yearns for. Yet, through the lens of adulthood, Delia's entries take a wrecking ball to the perception of her parents' love story she'd long built up in her mind, uncovering a child's internalization of a failed marriage, poverty, and a mother come undone."--

You don't know what war is : the diary of a young girl from Ukraine / by Skalietska, Yeva,author.;
"An inspiring memoir of resilience by a young survivor of the war in Ukraine, as told through her diary entries-a harrowing and ultimately hopeful survival story. Yeva Skalietska's story begins on her twelfth birthday in Kharkiv, where she has been living with her grandmother since she was a baby. Ten days later, the only life she'd ever known was shattered. On February 24, 2022, her city was suddenly under attack as Russia launched its horrifying invasion of Ukraine. Yeva and her grandmother took shelter in a basement bunker, where she began writing this diary. She describes the bombings she endured while sheltering underground and her desperate journey west to escape the conflict raging around them. After many endless train rides and a prolonged stay in an overcrowded refugee center in Western Ukraine, Yeva and her beloved grandmother eventually find refuge in Ireland. There, she bravely begins to forge a new life, hoping she'll be able to return home one day." -
