Joy Dale Crawford was the first girl in the world to encounter and live with the primitive, cannibalistic Yali tribe of the Heluk Valley in the remote mountains of Dutch New Guinea (Papua). Drawing from her own memories and the accounts of her parents, Joy weaves a fascinating story giving original meaning to the word, 'alien'. This autobiography gives young adults a thoughtful response to the age-old question, 'Why do bad things happen?' and reveals first-hand how God can turn bad into good.
