Book Reviews of They Poured Fire On Us From The Sky: The True Story of Three Lost Boys from Sudan

Book Review: Everyone should read this book...5+++ stars
Summary: 5 Stars

The authors of this book have amazing courage to tell the true story of what they endured while civil war raged on in their home country of Sudan. They tell it with eloquence yet raw honesty, which demonstrates how they were able to grow and learn under such extreme circumstances. The tone of the writing made me feel almost as if the authors were talking to me. The writing style is heartfelt yet straightfoward. It cuts right to it.

Benson, Alepho, and Benjamin share their personal stories, putting faces, names, and feelings to what often is only covered in the news as a brief report. The authors' stories are their own, yet they also echo the stories of the thousands of Lost Boys of Sudan as well as the women, children, and men affected by civil war in any country.

This book is educational, touching, sad, and inspirational. It may move you to action, and it will definitely stay with you.
