His syndicated comic strip "The Ghost Story Club" ran in American newspapers from 1995 to 1998.Zullo currently lives in Fairview, North Carolina." "his book features ten incredible true stories of what young refugees endured when, through no fault of their own, they were torn from their homes by genocide—the deliberate mass killing of a large ethnic group—or war and had to flee their country. They were unable to return to their homeland because of violence, so their lives were put on hold—in some cases for years—while they held onto the uncertain hope for a better life.They found that better life. They no longer suffer from the horrors of their childhoods because they are settled in the United States, leading happy, productive lives. They are proof positive of why America is the greatest nation on earth. Their stories are based exclusively on personal, lengthy interviews with the author. Using real names, dates and places, the stories are written as factual and truthful versions of the refugees’ recollections.The book features stories of young refugees from Syria, Iraq, Burma (also known as Myanmar), Bosnia, Somalia, Liberia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, Cambodia and Vietnam."
