Über diesen Titel

Every Falling Star, the first book to portray contemporary North Korea to a young audience, is the intense memoir of a North Korean boy named Sungju, who is forced at age 12 to live on the streets and fend for himself. To survive, Sungju creates a gang and lives by thieving, fighting, begging, and stealing rides on cargo trains. Sungju richly recreates his scabrous story, depicting what it was like for a boy alone to create a new family with his gang, his "brothers"; to be hungry and to fear arrest, imprisonment, and even execution. This riveting memoir allows young listeners to learn about other cultures where freedoms they take for granted do not exist.

Kritikerstimmen

"A pampered son of the elite survives a nightmarish ordeal in this page-turner of a memoir." ( Kirkus)

This part of history was horrible and we have to learn about it! Speaking of history, it happened just a couple of years ago!

Breathtakingly horrible!
