I read the book Golden Boy by Tara Sullivan. The book is about an albino child named Habo who lives in a farmhouse with his family in Africa. His father left his family after Habo was born because the dad thought that the mom had cheated with a white tourist because Habo is white, because that's because he's albino. One day, his family is evicted from their home. When this happens, they are forced to set out to a city called Mwanza to live with Habo's aunt. They hitch a ride with an elephant poacher called Alasiri. When they arrive at Habo's aunt's house, Habo's aunt tells Habo that he is an albino and that he should be careful of Alasiri as he might hunt Habo for his skin. Alasiri tries to get Habo alone and kill him but Habo runs away to a nearby town. He gets so hungry that he tries to steal food from a blind man. The blind man named Kweli doesn't yell at Habo, but makes Habo his apprentice. Habo lives at his house until Alasiri tracks Habo down to Kweli's house, knocks on the door and asks Kweli if he's seen Habo. Habo breaks down after Alasiri leaves and tells Kweli what happened. Kweli notifies the police and Alasiri gets put into jail. At the end of the book, Habo is reunited with his family and finally accepts that he is not a monster, but an albino. My opinion of the book is that it was good, but it lacked a couple of characteristics. The book was very detailed in describing things, but moved very slow. For instance, it described Habo's pale skin and red eyes very well, but it took a very long time for the family to make it to the aunt's house. I also felt like the author described some things that didn't need to be described, or was almost over-describing. This book was realistic fiction because everything that happened in the book could and still happens today, but this book was not taken from an actual story. Poachers still do hunt albinos for their skin as they think that it will bring them good luck. An audience that should read this book are people that like descriptive writing, with a setting that is very detailed and clear. The audience should like reading books with slow starts and not books that move very fast. The audience should also like a little bit of action, as there is some action at the end of the book. In this book, there was one internal conflict and one external conflict. The internal conflict that Habo faced was him thinking of himself as an outcast because of his skin color. This was because all of the kids in the city called him white boy, and made fun of him for his skin color. An external conflict that Habo faced is when he was being chased by Alasiri. Alasiri was trying to kill Habo for his skin and Habo barely managed to escape. Overall, this was a pretty good book and I would recommend it.
