Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Fadi is a sweet Afghan boy who adores photography, the novel FROM THE MIXED-UP FILES OF MRS. BASIL E. FRANKWEILER, and his family. Fleeing from the Taliban in a truck with other escapees, his family loses his little sister Mariam. It is too dangerous to turn back and find Mariam, which causes heartache for the whole family. Settling in the United States in a post 9/11 atmosphere, Fadi rockily adjusts to life in California. Money is tight, classmates are bigots and, most importantly, he misses Mariam. An opportunity presents itself: there is a chance to find Mariam, and Fadi is determined to do whatever it takes to save his little sister in a Claudia-like/Mixed-Up Files fashion. Warning: You may need a box of tissue at hand while reading this. This was beautifully written and it's something I would read again.
