Hello JBPIN group,

Thank-you for your comments about the author last week. This week what I would like you to do is to read up to chapter 6 in The Breadwinner. I would like for you to retell what you have read on the blog, ask two good juicy questions, and then find three words that you do not know the meaning of and look those vocab words up in the dictionary.

Looking forward to your responses on these chapters,

Post what you can find out about her under this thread. Also you can click the link on that site to find out more about what life is like in Afghanistan.
