About the product

In the Shadow of the Lion is a novel that tells the story of a young girl caught in the grip of internal armed conflict in Africa. It covers issues that humanitarian agencies are grappling with: the problems of people who have lost their homes and possessions, child soldiers, the proliferation of small arms, the abuse of women and girls. The purpose of this novel is to educate young readers on possible responses in humanitarian emergencies, should they ever find themselves in such a crisis.
