This is one of those books you will not want to "put down." It tells how 11-year old Nkosi Johnson and his unofficially adoptive mother Gail struggle in the fight against AIDS, both within himself and across South Africa. Because of Gail's determination to help the poor victims of HIV/AIDS, she was able to open Nkosi's Haven, originally a single shelter for HIV-positive women and children that continues expanding and accommodating more each day. This book really opened my eyes about the extreme impact of AIDS on South Africa and other sub-Saharan countries and how education and acceptance goes a long way. The epidemic would be worse still in South Africa if Nkosi and Gail had not done more than their share in making others aware.

Short, but Long Enough to Touch Your Heart
Revisado: 09-03-06
Excellent first-hand portrayal of an intelligent, young girl struck with the misfortune of having AIDS in one of the most prevalent areas of the world. She represents one of the many faces whose hope for a future has been crushed by the tragedy that further hinders progress in this area of the world. It is wonderful and yet heart-wrenching to hear Thembi's mature outlook on her life and the lives of those she loves.
