Unfortunately for all of you, I will not be posting my signed copy any time soon. I actually got to meet Ishmael Beah at a local library event. In 20 years, he was the youngest person (at age 26) to speak in this particular Distinguished Speakers Lecture Series. He stood about 5'4" and he had a smile that infects you. How could this person be the same boy in the book?

The book was wonderful. It will make you wonder what you would do to survive.
