Book club pick for October
This is a non-fiction book about the Lost Boys of Sudan. In the late 80s, the Arabs invaded southern Sudan for religious reasons and for natural resources. The boys had to flee across Sudan into Ethiopia and eventually made their way to Kenya. This is 3 boys stories of their long journey.
We watched the movie "God Grew Tired of Us" to accompany our book club evening. This topic was so sad, but through it all these boys have remained hopeful and cheerful. Many have come to the US as refugees and are trying to build a life for themselves here.
Highly recommended.
