Join Mathew on an extraordinary adventure in At Least I Wasn't Eaten by a Lion

This heartwarming children's book follows Mathew, a brave boy from Sudan, as he faces a series of incredible challenges. After his village is destroyed by conflict, Mathew sets out on a perilous journey across 1,000 miles, determined to find safety and a new home.

As Mathew walks, he meets Machar, another boy who has lost everything. With his quick wit and kind heart, Mathew comforts Machar by reminding him that at least they haven't been eaten by a lion. This simple but powerful mantra helps Mathew find strength and courage along the way.
