Nine-year-old Nat is forced out of his Cambodian home and marched into the countryside when the Khmer Rouge comes into power. Nat is separated from his family and endures forced labor in rice fields from dawn to midnight with little food. Over the next four years, Nat confronts starvation, fear, and brutality. With the help of his friend Malis, Nat finds hope and the strength to escape, eventually reuniting with the family he loves. Half Spoon of Rice is based on true stories of courage, friendship, survival, and the triumph of the human spirit. The book features vivid illustrations and historical photographs documenting the Cambodian genocide from 1975 to 1979.

This book kept me up all night, I couldn't put it down.
I was so tempted many times while reading to drop the book, run the the computer and start right then in the middle of the night.
Book is very easy to understand, not a lot of those fancy words you hear on CNBC or read in the Wall Street Journal. Layout is bland, with common names of hymns titled only slightly larger (and not emphasized) than the overall proceedings. There were many contemporaneous accounts of the MUTINY ON THE GLOBE. So it wasn't much of a shock when he reveals himself. With picture clues and simple rhymes my son got a portion of them. For instance, a psychic description of almost anything would ordinarily cause me to throw a book across the room, but the author's touch was sufficiently light to allow me to get through the subject. There were a few times he opened up and I think those little glimpses really made me realize that we needed more from him.
Either way, my heart goes out to the aut
