A LONG WAY GONE: MEMOIRS OF A BOY SOLDIER --- This is a great book to read... very well written, but very hard to read and understand what these children experience and go through. I loved the above interview with Ishmael... It is amazing how he has come out of these experiences and as he says how he has learned how to transform his experiences and learn from them.
