Search review text. Ahmad Sharabiani. This beautiful girl Samira is brought up as a boy Samir in a culture that shames having a daughter as the first child, and worse, the only child. Consequently, the father raises his Samira as Samir.
He teaches her how to fight, ride, Shoot, haunt, etc. She dresses like a boy, talks like boy, walks like a boy. But Samira shows courage, she shows strength, she shows compassion. She is never scared, she is never fretful. She lives and acts as men do.
As Samir, she teaches others lessons about bravery and confidence. But the author does a decent job of giving us a rare glimpse into the oppressive lives of the women in Afghanistan and the damages caused by gender constrained roles in certain Arab-Islamic societies.

It leaves you with questions broader than the culture the book describes e. A sad yet amazing and also true story of a brave Woman in Afghanistan.
Another story that gives you the courage to be who you want to be. A girl's struggles trying to know herself, her goals, and fulfill her parents and her society's wishes. The story shows you that nothing is impossible, and YOU are in charge of your life, no matter what.
As it says in the book: "Be afraid of only one thing. Of not living your life" "As long as we live we have the strength to make whatever we want from our life. Faith Mortimer. Author 29 books followers.
