His wife, Martha, endured similar hardships. In this memorable book, the two convey the best of African values while relating searing accounts of famine and war. There's warmth as well, in their humorous tales of adapting to American life. For its importance as a primary source, for its inclusion of the rarely told female perspective of Sudan's lost children, for its celebration of human resilience, this is the perfect story to inform and inspire young readers.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Waipahu Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 962.4043 Dau Da Checked In Add Copy to MyList
