COMMUNITY REVIEWS

simply amazing!!!:) submitted by miriam gandham on June 28, 2013, 4:12pm I could not stop reading this one it was soooooooo good. There was always something new happening in the story and was written really nicely. Definitely recommend this book to tweens as well as adults.

So terrible that this is still going on in the world submitted by Xris on June 28, 2021, 11:01pm The author does a great job of conveying what it is like for Parvana as she tried to find that family that is left. I wish we could find a way to feed and house all of the people in the world in need. But this was a good continuation from the first book. Now I have to get the last one.
