Description
In this moving novel, two children in different times and places are bound by the same essential need: access to clean water. Through the parallel stories of a Sudanese girl in the 2000s and a boy in the 1980s, the book follows how daily journeys shape survival, family, and hope. As their lives unfold, the narrative illuminates themes of resilience, the impact of conflict, and the quiet power of perseverance in the face of hardship. Written with Linda Sue Park’s clear, compassionate storytelling and vivid emotional realism, this is a powerful, accessible read that invites reflection on global inequality and the everyday courage it takes to keep going.
