Recommendations for s 12 year old refugee boy stuck at home

Here's what I know:

He is 12. He has had limited formal education and is a non native English speaker. He is stuck at home and unable to walk. I know the boy's mother and she is very concerned about the fact that he is sitting at home all day not going to school. I want to help by giving her a care package full of activities for him to do while stuck at home. I thought of graphic novels. I'm not a graphic novel reader though and would very much appreciate your recommendations for him.

This boy has experienced serious illness, life in a refugee camp, racism, and very likely other serious traumas unknown to me. So please try to be sensitive to that with your recommendations.

tl;dr: looking for graphic novels that are trauma sensitive, lower reading level, and likely to capture the interest of a 12 year old boy?

Thank you so much in advance
