About this listen
In this stunning sequel to The Breadwinner Trilogy, Parvana, now 15-years-old, is found in a bombed-out school and held as a suspected terrorist by American troops in Afghanistan.
The girl does not respond to questions in any language and remains silent, even when she is threatened, harassed, and mistreated over several days. The only clue to her identity is a tattered shoulder bag containing papers that refer to people named Shauzia, Nooria, Leila, Asif, Hassan - and Parvana. As she waits for foreign military forces to determine her fate, she remembers the past four years of her life. Reunited with her mother and sisters, she has been living in a village where her mother managed to open a school for girls. But when local men threaten the school, she must draw on every ounce of bravery she possesses to survive the disaster that kills her mother and destroys the school. Ellis' final novel in the series is harrowing, inspiring, and thought-provoking.

The Perfect Book!
I used to not be able to read nor write, my teacher taught me how to read and used to buy me books so I could learn because my family had little money when I was young to buy me books for a class project in grade one. That day I found my love for books. I me e Thad money still growing up but after moving around to different schools when I was in grade 8 they had a book club as lame as it sounded I joined the club and read this Book (as well as others). This book stool out to me and spoke to me personally in a way to I could resonate through my own personal life experiences, though different. I personally love this book of triumph and courage!
