Many of these youth flee without their parents, some without any adult at all. The brave youth in this book endured untold hardships in Chinese-occupied Tibet. They left their homeland and loved ones, risking their lives on the journey to a new life. Once they reached freedom, they faced lives as refugees in a country with new customs, food, and languages. More children and teens follow in their footsteps everyday. |
