Fantastic tenacity against all odds. Remarkable what the human spirit is capable of, and the will to survive. I nonetheless felt heartbroken about the figure of 14million kids dying of malnutrition or simply disappearing in one city alone, English Très bien reçu, en avance en plus ! Je lai pris en anglais pour continuer dapprendre la langue. cest une très belle histoire, touchante , qui me rappelle beaucoup de choses vécues personnellement. Une grande poésie dhumanité , retranscrite dans un Hi there,I loved reading this book. After I finished, for days I didn't want to read it any other book. I am a ferocious reader. I have to have a book in hand to read, but a good one, but this one exceeds all my limits of a good book.its superb, excellent, so so empowering.. I will read that again. Another thing is that after reading about the conditions in which Saroo lived while with his family was an eye opener to me. I am from India, from upper middle class, I have lot of compassion for the poor. But when I read about Saroo in calcutta and how a 5 yrs old Saroo managed those few weeks on the banks of river or railway stations or how he scavenged food on the pavements and bins.. I cried reading it wondering this is what the children go through living on footpath. And then in the boys hostels, the kind of abuses the children go through.. its overr 2 months since I read this book, I have not gptton over this book on the contrary I have developed so much of a compassion so so so much of compassion towards poor all the that I am so motivated to do something towards them in India. Hats off to you Saroo Sheru, the Lion, God helped you to be where you are, but there are so many who need our help.Thanks for this book,I loved itNarinder 978-0122167850

The story begins with when and how, when he was 5 years old, his entire life changed in one night. He lived with his mother, his two brothers and his sister in India, in extremely poor conditions.
