The Children of Africa

Here is a Wash Post review of three books about The Lost Boys of Sudan. What I like about this one is the article notes the perseverance of African children:

“I am particularly amazed by Africa's children -- by their ability to survive, to raise themselves, to fight when they have to, to endure horrors like rape or famine. There is nothing noble about it, nothing to glorify; children trapped in adult wars have no other choice.”
