A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park

4.0

I didn't love the narration of the audiobook of this book, until after the story was over and we heard a quick note from Salva. I have heard of the Lost Boys of Sudan and thought this story was told so well for a younger audience. The horrors that these refugees had to face could be pretty traumatic for young children, but this book addressed a lot of the realities Salva faced as walking his way to a refugee camp in Ethiopia. It was heartbreaking, but also showed the power of resilience, persistence and hope. Such a great read.
