I've read that book in Grade 10 English (Alberta, Canada) but the title Escapes me, all I remember is that they end up in an orphanage where they are beaten and one of them disinfects a wound with a pint of vodka. Also that the main character had to walk 100 miles without food and in order to cope with the hunger chewed on his cheeks.

The best I can come up with is "The Wild Children" by Felice Holman - it can't be that because it takes place while Lenin was alive.

I distinctly remember the Lenin part, but that one sounds very similar. I am going to have to track down a copy and give it a read. Thanks.
