DESCRIPTION:
zoyaaa said Lion. I LOVED this book and think even gained more understanding about how we are all basically the same inside as far as our need for love and family. "Exelent book" according to Amazon Customer. I usually get bored at half of the books I read but this one was amazing. There was something new and amazing in every page. I wanted to read more and more every day. Buy this product!!!. I enjoyed this book for the glimpse into India and the K.

And one day, after years of searching, he miraculously found what he was looking for and set off on a journey to find his mother. Saroo had become lost on a train in India at the age of five. This edition features new material from Saroo about his childhood, including a new foreword and a Q&A about his experiences and the process of making the film.. When Saroo Brierley used Google Earth to find his long-lost hometown half a world away, he made global headlines. Despite being happy in his new family, Saroo always wondered about his origins
