Hungry

“That night we were so hungry hat we stole people’s food while they slept.” This was the sentence in A Long Way Gone that popped out to me in chapter 4. where Beah and his friends were running away from an attacked village nowhere to go. In a movie I saw now I don’t remember the name, but it had an interesting subject about why some people steal they said which I also agree that is most times they’re just hungry. They use the last resort to surviving to get what they need they don’t or can’t have. Why? I don’t think it’s wrong or good but why are they hungry?
