Independent Reading Assignment 2

Title: A Long Way Gone- Memoirs of a Boy Soldier


Author: Ishmael Beah


Section 1: 1-49
Section 2: 50-100
Section 3: 101-152
Section 4: 153-218


I decided to read this book because it deals with a young boy living in Sierra Leone who lives a deprived life. The main character Ishmael, was forced by the government to fight and preform terrible acts that he did not know he was capable of doing. After being pulled out by UNICEF, he was provided the help that he needed to heal. I am anxious to read Ishmael story and by reading it, it will remind me of how fortunate I am.
