The Writing Show show

Summary: Benjamin Ajak, Benson Deng, and Alephonsion Deng were all under the age of seven when they were driven from a war-ravaged country.

Please join Judy Bernstein and host Paula B. as they ponder: How the three learned to write so well How much editing was involved How Judy integrated their disparate stories How writing the book affected all of them What's next for Benjamin, Alepho, Benson, and Judy.
