Status Updates From Out of War: True Stories fr...

Today I read about the stories of Colombia, which has been at war for over forty years, but some brave young Colombians are trying to restore peace to their country. Their efforts in the Children's Peace Movement are generating hope for future generations in Colombia.

Releasing children from violence to encourage peace in Columbia is a world-wide concern.

Read this book to preview it for my next unit at school- haven’t decided if we will study this book or another!!

I like the protagonist want's to change her country

We are finally learning about a new person. He is called Beto he talks about how his brother showed up to the place they were staying and he was drugged out of his mind.

They are talking about everyone who died on the massacres that was in September 1995. It explained how they were killing everyone how they took them out of the bus and killed them 1 by 1.

We are finally learning about a new person called Farlis. They talked about his cousin who had a new wife and baby and how he needed a job to support them. He was gonna join a group that killed people around colombia but Farlis talked him out of it.

They are talking about a man is showing up to the farm and demanding food shelter and money in return for his protection.

They are also fighting for the poor. The poor suffered more than anyone else in the war.

We are now learning about a new person in this group called “Children’s Movement for Peace”, we learned this new kid his name is Juan Elias and he wants to restore peace because they killed his father.

The boy tell us how was his life before the war, all the time lived in a mansion in aguachica town because his father had their dental practice and every weekend they went to the farm, his father loved farm more than dentist
