I think that the only reasin that the taliban do't like women is because it says in their form of bible. I deffinetly don't think their bored because men have much more fun things they can do than women. Also why would it be fun do hit a girl. How could you live with yourself. I do think that it is very sad though that they think that is okay. Brad I do not agree with you.

There wasn't a sigle page where I didn't say WOW at least three times. It is just a wowful book. Amazing, stupendous, outrageous, but in a way, horrible. I was suprised the aotor didn't make such a big deal when the dad came home. She just sort of slapped it down at the end of a chapter! Ijust, well, AHHH~! How to describe a book so amazing, yet so horrible! Like I said in my other entry, WHO WOULD WANT TO WRITE THIS?! I liked a quote in the book, I don't know where exactly it is so this isn't the same as it was written. "This is nothing like a summer vacation. We are not working towards anything! This will not come to an end." Kira This book is, well, wowful, that’s not even a word, I know, but it shoulld be! There wasn’t a sigle page where I didn’t say WOW at least three times.

I agree more with Kavan because her dad was in almost a smuch as Marraym and Ali and you wouldn't say their not really main characters. But I don't get why you think he gets more popular when he goe to jail. The dad maybe should get in a little more but the story is more about the girls and respect not about the dad. I think that the dad is a very important character because he tought Parvana how to read and write. I also think that Nooria should'nt be in almost every scene that Parvana.

In my entery i had a respns it read: ” I also don’t like the fact that women are beaten by the Taliban even if they didn’t do anything wrong. I was wondering why the Taliban don’t like women, what is wrong with them? Without women NONE of the Taliban would have been there. ” (Hayden said that.) I completely agree with the beating part… were they just board? And did this think it was fun? Brad- This is the same thing as my entery number 1… In my entery i had a respns it read:

It may be a little wired and I would never read this book for fun but I bet it will be one of the best books we read all year. But I think taht Nooria may be so grumpy because ever since Hossain died she has had nobody to play with so she take's on Parvana, or maybe she could just be jealous. Another thing I think about the book is why the author deciided to tell the story in the 3rd person instead of just have Parvana tell irt in the first person. Maybe it is beacuse it was easier that way. But so far I think the book is pretty good. I think that that the book is wriiten beatifuly.

The Taliban aren’t all greedy goons but I still think a majority of them are. I would have to say that I would be scared to death for every second of my life if I was a woman and married to a Taliban man. (Hey that rhymes!) I can also answer why a society never took away men’s rights. It’s because early in the human race men thought they were stronger than the woman. I think the reason the Taliban ruined the lives of parvanas family is that the Taliban are trying to get rid of the British and started bombing their own country but were doing more harm than good.(Even if they were hitting the British it still wouldn’t be good) -Willy I think you are completely right.

Nooria wasn't pulling her own weight. It's almost as if the pressure skipped the mom and Nooria and went straight to Parvana. but don't worry if the author is smart she would of had the mom and Nooria do at least a little work. I hated that Taliban! I was also surprised when she was tuff enough to read the Taliban man’s letter and try to free her dad from jail. But I thought that just goes to show how much she cares about her family (a lot) and how much her family cares about her.(not a lot) -Jackson, I don’t think you could be more right.

But I do agree that evry one should get an free education unless thet'rebeing taught the wrong things. Do youguys think that Nooria was mean. She gave Parvana no credit exept when she gave her a hug.
