Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: War and other forms of conflict have destroyed the homes of thousands of the worldâs children. Twentytwo children give their personal accounts of losing home, family, or, all too often, both. Facts about the various conflicts, maps, photos, a glossary, and an introduction by acclaimed author Beverly Naidoo help children understand the plight of these kids whose lives are so different, but whose needs and hopes are very much like their own.
The Carnegie Medal, Jane Addams Book Award, the American Library Associationâs Best Books for Young Adults, and Booklistâs Top of the List are some of the honors garnered by Beverly Naidoo.
A portion of the proceeds of this book will go to the International Rescue Committee.
