Salva is Eleven years old on his last birthday, Salva was a good student. He already knew the lesson, which was why he was letting his mind wander down the road ahead of his body. Salva was well aware of how lucky he was to be able to go to school.

What I learned about Salva is that he is 11 years and at home he would hunt animals for food and he has to work for the cows and watch over his younger brothers. Also I think that throughout the story it shows why he was lost and got seperated from his family in the back of the book

What I learned about Nya is that she is 11 years old and she is very tall for her age. I know this because, in the text it says, "Tall for her eleven years".

Another thing I learned about Nya is that she can walk a lot cause she is probably used to it. I know this because, in the text it says, "... Nya could switch the handle from one hand to the other". Later on in the text the author states, "It would take her half the morning if she didn't stop on the way."

What I've Learned About Nya Is That, She Is An 11 Year Old Girl That Walks For 4 Hours Everyday To Get Water, The Way She Gets Water Is By Putting It In A Big Plastic Container, This Takes Her Half of The Morning, 4 Hours To Get Water & Another 4 Hours To Get Back Home, Everytime Shes Walking To Get Water, She Is Always Baking In The Hot, Blazin' Sun.

And Now, What I've Learned About Salva Is That He Is Also The Same As Nya Which Is 11, He Didn't Go To School For The Whole Year Last Time, But Now He Does, Salva Is One of All The Same Students, Sometime He Always Wishes That He Stayed Home And Herding Cattle, He Is A Boy That Was Teached Hunting, Sometimes He Failed With His 3 Other Brother's, We Don't Really Know Much About His 2 Sister's, And Back To His School Time's He Was Staring At The Clock Until He Heard A Loud BANG! Outside The School Window And After That The Teacher Started Going Back On The Topic They Heard CRACK! POP-POP-CRACK! ACK-ACK-ACK-ACK-ACK-ACK! It Was Gunfire. The Teacher Shouted "EVERYONE DOWN!" They Had To Go Into The Bush, But When They Went Outside, Everybody, Boy's To Girl's Men To Woman Babies To Kids, Everybody Was Running And Dust Covered The Vision of Everybody.
