奔跑的亚军

艾米鲁是一个身体瘦弱的小男孩，他和街上别的男孩一样，整日在波斯湾海滩上拾甁子、捡破烂，来换取生存所需。在他们生活的这片沙漠里，有火车通过。追逐火车成了这些孩子们的一个共同的游戏。他们听到火车到来的声音，就会放下手中的东西，奋力去追，追过火车，追过同伴。艾米鲁在很小的时候就已经懂得了生活的意义，他知道，如果想要生活得好，就要努力奋斗。这种生活的感悟就是来自于他追火车的乐趣中。整个过程就是赛跑，和火车赛跑，和别人赛跑，追逐并且超越了，就可以获取更好生活的能量。为了达到这种目标，艾米鲁努力学习知识，在艰苦的生存环境下奋力挣扎。逆境求生和学习成长成为了他最熟悉的两种比赛。Amiro is a young boy who has lost his home during the war.
