Summary:
Samatar's parents and siblings are killed in the war. When his grandmother, who takes care of him, starves to death, he flees to the capital Mogadishu just like many other children in the villages. He lives a brutal and dangerous life, where he and other street children are chased by malicious adults and soldiers. But he also meets wonderful people who help him. The events that occur in this book are both true and fictional and discuss the events that have taken place in Somalia and the suffering and violence that Somalis have experienced.
