Write it in your own language. If it has merit, it can be translated professionally for publication............. Good luck....

Write it in simple English, easily understood by your average child. Sometimes simple writing can be more powerful than complex writing.
Express main ideas through your writing. Let the reader see your emotion through your simplicity.

Have you ever read Persephone? It's a comic book, very powerful, written about the situation in the middle east from the viewpoint of a young girl who lives there. You could try writing a comic book, or if you're not good at that kind of thing, a children's book that can be illustrated later.

And of course, as someone already mentioned, you could write it in your own language and hire a translator to translate it while still capturing the essence of the book.

You've got the hardest part under control, knowing what you want to relate, what to comment about your experiences. Keep writing. Further down the road you can have someone edit and polish it for you. Or, you might decide to leave it in your own speech; it's not as if there aren't plenty of folks who are in your boat or would be enriched by hearing your own voice.
Good for you. Keep up the work.

You could get someone to edit your book, they could fix all of you grammar and spelling mistakes.
