"The Breadwinner" by Deborah Ellis tells the story of Parvana, an 11-year-old girl living under the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. When her father is arrested, Parvana must disguise herself as a boy to support her family in a society that forbids women from working. As she navigates the streets of Kabul, Parvana faces danger and hardship but also discovers resilience and hope. Her journey sheds light on the struggles of women and girls in oppressive environments while highlighting the importance of courage, friendship, and the quest for freedom. The novel is both a poignant and enlightening exploration of survival. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
