Title: Civil assignment
Review: Deborah Ellis is a weaver of tales. This book gets a person inside the head of a 13-year-old girl striving to survive the Taliban. In her journey, she gains a new family after she had lost her own due to the war. After reading this book, you get a better understanding of what children who live in war torn countries have to undergo in order to survive. At times Parvana wonders if she will ever get out of the cycle of death and war. "For a moment she wondered what she was becoming. Then she dismissed the question. `I didn't create this world,' she said to herself. `I only have to live in it.'"(128) The ending is very surprising. This book will move you to want to do something for the millions of displaced children in the world.
