  • "The Breadwinner brings to life an issue that has recently exploded in the international media-- the reality of life under the Taliban. Young Parvana lives with her family in one room of a bombed-out apartment building in Kabul, Afghanistan.

She cuts her hair and disguises herself as a boy to earn money for her family. [Booklist]."
