Many of us have heard of the "Lost Boys" from the second civil war in Sudan. But not many are aware there were girls involved as well. Achut Deng is one of those girls.  

"Hope is not life." As a child refugee, Achut's life was full of hope. Hope for a new day. Hope to see her friends again. Hope for a life. Coming to America was her definition of success and a life, and she wasn't going to fail. 

Her book, "Don't Look Back," tells the story of her journey as a "Lost Boy", traveling from south Sudan to America, and the hardships that being a refugee in a new country brings. Check out her book on Amazon or any major retailer.
