This is a GREAT book...go get it right now! I was a bit reluctant to read it as I didn't want another depressing stories about the Middle East. However, this was a very touching story about a young boy who happened to live in Afghanistan. It's a tear jerker that you will never forget...

Often overly detailed and slow, this book is still worth reading. It will - without a doubt - change the way you eat for the better. I would rate it a 3 for overall writing style, but because it had such an impact on my life, and I can still remember so many important details, I bumped the rating to a 4.
