"A Guide for Using the Breadwinner in the Classroom" by Melissa Hart is a resource for educators designed to enhance the teaching of Deborah Ellis’s novel "The Breadwinner." The book provides lesson plans, discussion questions, and activities that focus on themes such as courage, resilience, and the impact of war on children. In "The Breadwinner," we follow the story of Parvana, an 11-year-old girl in Taliban-ruled Afghanistan, who disguises herself as a boy to support her family after her father is arrested. The narrative addresses the struggles of women and girls in oppressive regimes, highlighting the importance of strength and hope. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
