Una larga travesia hasta el agua, best-seller del New York Times, comienza como dos historias, que se van alternando, sobre dos ninos de once anos en Sudan, una nina en 2008 y un nino en 1985. La nina, Nya, va a buscar agua a un estanque que esta a dos horas de caminata desde su hogar; cada dia, hace dos viajes hasta el estanque. El nino, Salva, se convierte en uno de los "ninos perdidos" de Sudan, refugiados que recorren a pie el continente africano en busqueda de sus familias y de un lugar seguro en el que vivir. Soportando todas las adversidades -la soledad, el ataque de rebeldes armados, el contacto con leones y cocodrilos asesinos-, Salva es un superviviente, y su historia se cruza con la historia de Nya de una manera sorprendente y movilizadora.
