The Breadwinner by Deborah Ellis

By Liane Hicks

The Breadwinner is a historical fiction novel about an 11-year-old girl struggling to survive alongside her family under the oppressive and brutal regime of the Taliban in the 1990s. Sadly, this book is as relevant today as it was when it was written in 2000. Engage and educate students with Storyboard That.
