À propos de cet audio

Audie Award Finalist, Children's Titles for Ages 8-12, 2014

In 1985 southern Sudan is ravaged by war. Rebels and government forces battle for control, with ordinary people…people like the boy, Salva Dut…caught in the middle. When Salva's village is attacked, he must embark on a harrowing journey that will propel him through horror and heartbreak, across a harsh desert, and into a strange new life.

Years later, in contemporary South Sudan, a girl named Nya must walk eight hours a day to fetch water. The walk is grueling, but there is unexpected hope. How these two stories intersect is told in this fascinating dual narrative, performed by David Baker and Cynthia Bishop, with the assistance of dialect coach James Achueil…who actually made the same journey across Africa when he was one of the "Lost Boys of the Sudan."

It is a sad yet triumphant story that let's the world 'see' the devastating effects of war and conflict on a Nation already struggling with bad natural conditions that lead to malnutrition and decease owing to lack of good, clean water. Salva is a real hero, after all he went through, to finally make it back home and provide water pump stations in his home village and other villages proves dreams do come true, if we are willing to persevere, work hard and ask for help along the way!

Nice story severely hurt by poor reading performance. Being the book was portrayed as a fictional novel, I was expecting more character development and story. It read more as a documentary.

interesting book
