The War On Hunger

Rating:
Summary: Bad News, Good News
Review: Hunger in our world knows no political boundaries. Fortunately, neither do the numerous nongovernmental organizations that strive to feed the people of the world. Ron Fridell identifies the scope of the hunger problem, and, in a spirit of hope, tells the reader of effective efforts and remarkable stories of progress in the war on hunger. The War on Hunger: Dealing with Dictators, Deserts, and Debt in Fridell's "In a Perfect World" series introduces readers to agencies that tackle the problem of hunger in the world, such as the Landless Workers Movement, the Heifer Project International, New York's City Harvest, and Creed Alliance in Pakistan, to name a few. Color photos and "How You Can Help" at the end of the book make this a valuable story that raises awareness of one of our global problems.
