Lost Boy, Lost Girl by John Bul Dau

One of thousands of children who fled strife in southern Sudan, John Bul Dau survived hunger, exhaustion, and violence. His wife, Martha, endured similar hardships. In this memorable book, the two convey the best of African values while relating searing accounts of famine and war. There's warmth as well, in their humorous tales of adapting to American life. For its importance as a primary source, for its inclusion of the rarely told female perspective of Sudan's lost children, for its celebration of human resilience, this is the perfect story to inform and inspire young readers.

John Bul Dau is a Southern Sudanese Dinka who was one of thousands of Lost Boys who escaped their nation during Sudan's civil war. He sought safety in Ethiopian and Kenyan refugee camps before relocating to Syracuse, New York, with his wife and daughter.
