Parvana’s Journey is about a girl called Parvana who is journeying in Afghanistan. She comes across a strange noise while journeying, “what is it?” you might say, but you will have to read the book to find out!
I really enjoyed reading Parvana’s Journey. When you see the cover you don’t think it’s going to be good but once you start to read it, it is absolutely amazing. But remember this is the sequel to The Breadwinner, so make sure to read The Breadwinner first! If I was to give it a rating out of five, I would give it a FIVE!
Black hat negative: I flew through Parvana’s Journey and I couldn’t find any bad things about the story. I don’t think there are any negatives about the book.
Yellow hat positive: I liked everything about this book, it was detailed, adventurous and fun. It was amazing just reading this book and if I was to choose the book that took me to the most places in my head it would be this one!
