There are many types of battle in Afghanistan. Imagine living in a country where young girls and women are not allowed to leave the house without a man. Imagine having to wear clothes that cover every part of your body including your face whenever you go out. This is the life of Parvana, a young girl growing up in Afghanistan, under the control of an extreme military group. When soilders burst into her home and take her father off to prison, Parvana is forced to take care of her whole family. Dressing up as a boy to make a living at the marketplace of Kabul, risking her life in the dangerous and volatile city. By turns exciting and touching, Parvana is a story of courage in the face of overwhelming fear and repression. - **By Bianca Wills**

I am Parvana. I think that i dont have a big say in the family. A question i have from the view point is, why did my dad get taken away from the Taliben? I am Parvana's Mother. I think that Parvana can be difficult to control in the family. A question i have from the view point is, why doesnt Parvana always agree with me?
