Description
Arn's life was turned upside down when soldiers arrived in his hometown. He went from dancing to rock'n'roll and selling icecream with his brother to being forced into field work, then becoming a child soldier. His only constant thought became: "Never fall down." Based on the true story of Arn Chorn-Pond, this novel tells the powerful and raw story of a child of war who becomes a man of peace. As Arn navigates the harsh realities of war, he clings to his simple creed. But how can someone so young survive in such a brutal world? This book is an unflinching look at the effects of conflict on civilians, particularly children. Achingly raw and powerful, this novel sheds light on the often-overlooked experiences of those affected by war.
