The River

About the Book

The river flows through good times and bad, through forests and deserts, through days of cheer and days of sadness, through war and peace, and finally, it ends in the sea. It may assist in fertilizing the land, and it may help to spread disease and pollution. We cannot live without it, yet it could also drown us and kill us. Life is like a river.
