The non-fiction book I have chosen to read is They Poured Fire on Us From the Sky by Benson Deng, Alephonsion Deng, and Benjamin Ajak. This book is recounts the life of three 'lost boys' of Sudan. Due to the horrid massacre of Sudan's civil war, thousands of teenage boys were forced to take flight from their homes. Without any parents or sisters, these boys had to learn how to fend for themselves. Upon hearing that I enjoy reading books on societal issues of foreign countries, Ms. Pronko promptly recommended this book for me. It is one of her personal favorites and so I decided to give this book a try. |
