Wanting Mor by Rukhsana Khan Book Summary

Winner of the Middle East Book Award, Youth Fiction category

Jameela lives with her mother and father in Afghanistan. Despite the fact that there is no school in their poor, war-torn village, and Jameela lives with a birth defect that has left her with a cleft lip, she feels relatively secure, sustained by her faith and the strength of her beloved mother, Mor.

But when Mor suddenly dies, Jameela's father impulsively decides to seek a new life in Kabul. He remarries, a situation that turns Jameela into a virtual slave to her demanding stepmother. When the stepmother discovers that Jameela is trying to learn to read, she urges her father to simply abandon the child in Kabul's busy marketplace. Jameela ends up in an orphanage.

Throughout it all, it is the memory of Mor that anchors her and in the end gives Jameela the strength to face her father and stepmother when fate brings them into her life again.

A Great View of Life in Afghanistan. After reading this and the Breadwinner trilogy, I feel like this book gives more of an "insider's view" to life for girls in Afghanistan. This book will spark great discussions, all the while teaching you a different perspective on a part of the world you may of thought you understood.

This is a great book. This book inspired me to change the way I act
