@Randomrox26 It wasn't that odd, I thought the ending was amazing. I wish he would've gone into his America story but oh well. Ending was great.

The book ended so oddly.. But I loved it.
-
i think ishamel Beah level of Rhetoric and linguistic is immaculate, it gives me such joy to see someone from such poor backgroung is making a change in the world.

good joke lol

I loved the book when I first read it. What a pity it turns out to have been almost completely a fabrication.Beah was a soldier, if at all, for two months, not three years; his account of a fight at a UNICEF camp never happened, and the entire tale is - like so many other "biographies" - a combination of outright fabrication and reporting the experiences of others as his own.Don't take my word for it:check it out yourself,online.He's a provable fraud,which is such a pity,because it's a good book

PEACE IS FREE
HATRED IS EXPENSIVE

If anyone is looking for another book of this caliber, I recommend "Ghost Soldiers" by Hampton Sides.

Have you ever heard of the Nazis?

i met this guy too, and his oratorical skills are amazing. He is really inspiring.

He came to my school to speak, and it was absolutely amazing. What he has been through and risen above is breathtaking. People need to get awareness out on this issue. We can help Ishmael Beah to make things better in so many ways. I encourage everyone to at least spread the word to someone else or really get involved by fundraising or raising awareness on a large scale.
