What is Home?

What is home? Well, it can be many things to many different people. Once in school, we read a book called a Long Walk to Water. It was about this person named Salva and he was from a place called South Sudan. At that time, there was a civil war between Sudan and South Sudan. Then he went to America. He didn’t really fit in but he liked it. Also, we read a book called Home of the Brave. It's about a kid named Kek who tried to fit in America but he didn't. So he started working at a farm and worked with a cow named Gol. So he started to fit in by having friends at school and stuff. Lastly, home to me is fun, loving family and being safe and warm. Home to Salva is family and most likely freedom. To Kek its family,freedom,being safe, and friends.
