A Long Walk to Water by Susan Park

This story is about a boy named Salva and a girl named Nya who lived in Sudan Africa. Salva was at school but had to leave because there was a war going on. He couldn’t find his family but made a new friend. They had to go from camp to camp because they needed food, water and shelter. At some point in the story Salva’s cousin sends him an email about Salva’s father. Nya’s job for her family was to walk all day to a pool to get water.

I liked this book because I like historical fiction; I think it is really interesting.
