SynopsisWill the truth harm them -- or save them? When Nigeria's corrupt military government kills their mother, twelve-year-old Sade and her brother Femi think their lives are over. Out of fear for their safety, their father, an outspoken journalist, decides to smuggle the children out of Nigeria and into London, where their uncle lives. But when they get to the cold and massive city, they find themselves lost and alone, with no one to trust and no idea when -- or if -- they will ever see their father again. The Other Side of Truth is a gripping adventure story about courage, family, and the power of truth.

  • Great book for middle school

    I have been teaching middle school for 8 years and began developing literature units to encourage inquiry and exploration of other countries, cultures and time periods a few years back. This book is a great addition to that collection. The students loved it and were excited to conduct research while reading so they could be more informed readers. A great book to add to your collection of "world literature".
