Fantasy Historical
Gifted with a mind that continues to impress the elders in
his village, Ichmad Hamid struggles with knowing that he can
do nothing to save his friends and family. Living on
occupied land, his entire village operates in fear of losing
their homes, jobs, and belongings. But more importantly,
they fear losing each other.On Ichmad's twelfth birthday,
that fear becomes reality.With his father imprisoned, his
family's home and possessions confiscated, and his siblings
quickly succumbing to hatred in the face of conflict, Ichmad
begins an inspiring journey using his intellect to save his
poor and dying family. In doing so he reclaims a love for
others that was lost through a childhood rife with violence
and loss, and discovers a new hope for the
future.Reminiscent of The Kite Runner and One Thousand
Splendid Suns, this is an uplifting read, which conveys a
message of optimism and hope.
