This review is by Isaiah, age 12
This book is a sequel to "The Breadwinner". It is about Parvana as she makes her journey to find her mother. Her father has died and it is a hard journey. She finds some friends. Will she make it to her mother?
General rating: 2 out of 4. It was very engaging, but very depressing.
1. Is it plausible? Yes
2. Is it thought provoking? No, it doesn't make me think about anything other than the book. The book is kind of odd. There are a lot of strange things happening.
3. Is it engaging? It is very engaging. You want to know what happens next.
4. Is it uplifting? No. A lot of people die, so it isn't uplifting at all.
Language: none
Sex: none
My recommendation: Best for ages 9 and up. The book was okay. It had enjoyable characters, I guess. It had a very strange storyline. I liked the first one better. There is one book left in this series, though, and I will be reading it too. It's called "Mud City". As far as this book goes, I didn't really like it. Not only is it a very strange story, but a lot of the main characters die, which I just didn't like. Just stick with the first book.
