Linda Sue Parks book "A Long Walk to Water: Based on a True Story" won the 2011 Jane Addams Children's Book Award for older readers!
This dual narrative features young Nya and young Salva in Sudan. Nya walks eight hours every day so her family has water. Salva is in school when shots are fired and he flees into the bush to begin his every day walking. How does their future impact the future of war-torn Sudan?
