Review by Denver Patron |
| Wonderful reading. Gets into the mind of a young Afghan boy in his very troubled country.
--------------
I found this book an inspiring account of life in Afghanistan and then America. I thought it dealt extremely well with very difficult subjects. I do hasten that there is some content relating to child rape that can offend some readers.
