Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. i enjoyed this story, though at most points it was really sad. these three children had to live off the streets and had to be careful of the land mines placed everywhere ( ) The story broke my heart but was a great read. The message was my favorite part of the book. The lesson was to appreciate what you have and help others. As I was reading this book it really opened my eyes to how many struggling children are out there and made me appreciate my up bringing. The author constructed wonderful characters, such as Parvana and Leila, who showed bravery and persistence throughout the novel. Esta historia comienza donde acaba “El pan de la guerra”: Parvana, la muchacha protagonista, pierde a su padre mientras se desplazan para reunirse con el resto de su familia desde Kabul a Mazar-e-Sharif. Para no tener problemas con los talibanes, se hace pasar por un chico y adopta el nombre de Kassem. Al principio vive con una familia en una aldea. Sin embargo, decide seguir buscando a su madre y hermanos y huye atravesándolas tierras desérticas. En su camino recoge a un bebé, único superviviente del bombardeo de un pueblo, al que cuidará y llamará Hassan. Algo después, en una cueva que encuentra para descansar, conoce a Asif, un muchacho malherido y abandonado. Los tres retoman el viaje de búsqueda al que tras muchas peripecias se unirá Leila, otra niña que ha quedado huérfana tras el bombardeo de su casa. Juntos llegarán a un campo de refugiados donde intentarán sobrevivir en durísimas condiciones. Allí, tras la muerte de Leila en un desgraciado accidente, Parvana encontrará a su madre y a dos de sus hermanos. Todos juntos afrontarán un futuro incierto en un Afganistán hostil. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML: The second book in the internationally-bestselling series that includes The Breadwinner, Mud City and My Name Is Parvana A war is raging in Afghanistan as a coalition of Western forces tries to oust the Taliban by bombing the country. Parvana's father has died, and her mother, sister and brother have gone to a faraway wedding, not knowing what has happened to the father. Parvana doesn't know where they are. She just knows she has to find them. She sets out alone, masquerading as a boy, her journey becoming more perilous as the bombs begin to fall. Making her way across the desolate Afghan countryside, she meets other children who are strays from the war ?? an infant boy in a bombed-out village, a nine-year-old girl who believes she has magical powers over land mines, and a boy with one leg who is so obnoxious that Parvana can hardly stand him. The children travel together because it is easier than being alone. And, as they forge their own family in the war zone that Afghanistan has become, their resilience, imagination and luck help them to survive. The reissue includes a new cover and map, an updated author's note and a glossary to provide young readers with background and context. All royalties from the sale of this book will go to Canadian Women for Women in Afghanistan. Parvana's Fund supports education projects for Afghan women and children.
