quickwrite to answer this question (this means write whatever comes into your head based on what you have read in the text):
what connections are you making between \the lost boys of the sudan\ informational text, and a long walk to water? what information is similar in both?

Explanation:

Answer:

Both "The Lost Boys of the Sudan" (informational text) and A Long Walk to Water deal with the Sudanese civil war and the hardships faced by people, especially children, during that time. They share themes of survival, displacement, and the struggle for safety and basic needs (like water in A Long Walk to Water and refuge for the Lost Boys). The historical context of Sudan's conflict, the impact on innocent lives, and the journey of resilience are similar in both, showing how war disrupts lives and the lengths people go to survive.
