Welcome to Litsy!

Second book in The Breadwinner series picks up with 12-year-old Parvana as a refugee in Afghanistan after her father has died. She now must go on her own in her war torn country to try to find the rest of her family. Along the way she encounters other children even younger than herself, alone, starving and desperate. Excellent YA series on horrors of war and being a child refugee. https://cannonballread.com/2020/07/parvanas-journey-elcicco/
