Description

Deng Adut's family were farmers in South Sudan when a brutal civil war altered his life forever. At six years old, the age most Australian children are starting school, Deng began harsh military training that saw this young boy trained to use an AK-47 and sent into battle. He lost the right to be a child. This account serves as an important reminder of the power of compassion and the benefit to us all when we open our doors and our hearts to those fleeing war and persecution.

Professional reviews

"The true story of Deng Adut: a Sudanese child soldier, refugee and a man of hope. Deng Adut is a lawyer working in Western Sydney. He uses his spare time to help other Sudanese refugees. “Songs of a War Boy seriously challenges our notions of what it means to be Australian. It's much less about genetic heritage than the fact that we are welcoming and free and live by the rule of law.” THE SYDNEY MORNING HERALD"
