Bread Winner
By Deborah Ellis
Everyone
have struggles in their lifetime, but not everyone can bear it. Its hard to believe when a 11-year-old
Parvana, forced by the circumstances to be the breadwinner for her family in a
war-ton, Taliban- era. She bears all the
struggles that an adult be able to bear, which is completely NOT NORMAL.
The Taliban have completely controlled the city of Kabul. They wouldn’t allow any women out. Parvana is the oldest of her sisters and an amazingly responsible girl. A woman was shot, just for not covering her face.
Is that reasonable?
Parvana’s only dream is to get her dad out of the jail, who was forced to stay there for 2 years. She decides to turn herself into a boy.

Will she get
success in saving her dad and helping her family out, or will she be
caught?
What would you do, if you were
in her place?
This book is beautifully motivational.
Whenever I read this book, it touches the bottom of
my heart, and explains that we should not discriminate between a man and a
woman. The breadwinner reminds us how courageous the women are around the
world.

Short and sweet, I also agree it really is a beautifully motivational book. The plot is so interesting I want to read it again, the part where you said, she decided to turn herself into a boy. I wish there was a possibility this review could be more amazing.
