While the Earth Sleeps We Travel

Ahmed’s debut book, published by Andrews McMeel with a foreword from actor and UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Ben Stiller.

An extraordinary showcase of international creativity . . . this book invites a more critical engagement with the differences we assume about one another, and the distances we can bridge by sharing our own stories.
— Benj Pasek, Tony Award-winning Composer of Dear Evan Hansen
As the world continues to grapple with the highest number of refugees and internally displaced people on record, this book converts statistics into names and individual stories that should and do matter.
— Mina Al-Oraibi, Iraqi journalist and Editor in Chief of The National Newspaper
. . . will reaffirm your faith in human resilience and challenge your assumptions about what it means to be a refugee.
— Ari Shapiro, Host, NPR’s All Things Considered
. . . (a) treasure of a book . . .
— Melissa Fleming, Under-Secretary-General for Global Communications, United Nations
