Description: " ... about five young people trying to make sense of their changing world in a time of war. As they lose their families and homes, they find new friends who help them rebuild their lives. Torn free of the certainty and burdens of ancient African traditions, they each embark on a courageous journey, hoping to find safety and a new role in life. Along the way they discover both their strengths and weaknesses. Confronting the opportunities and hazards of the modern world, they are determined to be survivors, not victims"--Page 4 of cover.
