A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park. Books for Teens: 60second Book Review by Jenny Sawyer. http://goo.gl/Mij4KJ .
Nya is walking to save her life. Salva is walking to save his life. 20-some years later, their paths will cross. Salva saved his own life; now he's about to save Nya's. In the country of Sudan, where the land and the people have been ravaged by horrific warfare, there are a vanishing few paths toward hope and a brighter future. Miraculously, the characters in this book have discovered two of them.
"A Long Walk to Water" is a devastating, painful story. But its nearly-true-to-life account of Sudan's brave souls will inspire you to look for promise in a country where for so long, there has only been darkness.
