This is a fictional book describing a family living in Kabul.The families are on the control of the Taliban one of the girls needs to dress up like a boy to get food and water because they had money before but their houses got bombed.Now they live in poverty.

I liked this book because it was making you feel like if you were in the story, like if Parvana would be stressed you would be stressed and other like such as. It made me feel very sad to learn how history was over there and how people go to prison for teaching to read to their children and that they can do anything they want to you .

Parvana is brave she showed her braverie by going to town and when she said she wasn’t leaving without Baba. She showed she was brave many times the one that impressed me the most was when she would go to town. If I was Parvana I would never do that I would be … dying of fear.

During her experience Parvana learns that having a friend can make things much easier and that she was brave and confident. However she also learned that even if you’re a boy and you have privileges you still are not free. Now she knows that not the whole world is at war and that there is still a chance for that all of that to change. 

I think that Parvana is lucky to have a friend that does the same risky things and that since she has a friend she can do things much easier because they can tell themselves advices and help each other.I think that the thing who makes their friendship special is that the both have the same “jobs”. 

I recommend this to people that want to learn what is happening in Afghanistan. What made me think that the story was interesting and important is when I discovered that people were very poor and didn’t have the same privileges than we do like they can’t go to school and maybe other people will like to read it to because it teaches well.

If I should give this a rating it would be 7\10.
