"This passionate volume stands on its own, though readers new to the series and to Ellis' overall body of work will want to read every one of her fine, important novels. Readers will learn much about the war in Afghanistan even as they cheer on this feisty protagonist." -- "Kirkus," starred review

Review
[Parvana] represents those millions of girls all around the world who have no voice of their own.,
Jo CotterillThe story feels realistic and the writing moves at a gallop,
Alex O'Connell (Children's book of the week), The TimesThis is a compelling and riveting page-turner that is harrowing, inspiring and thought provoking throughout,
Lucy Carlton-Walker, The School Librarian... ideal for older readers to gain some insight into the complexities of life in Afghanistan.,
Annalise Taylor, CarouselI really felt Parvana's sense of danger and how she felt about being separated from her family. I think this book is suitable for all age groups although its topic is quite serious.,
