The book is written by Deborah Ellis. Its about a girl named Parvana. She’s a refugee in Afghanistan when the war with the talibans. After her fathers death, she lived some time with a kind man who gave her food and water. Parvana telled him that she was a boy and therefor she is allowed to stay. One night, one of the girls tells her to run away because the man is going to sell her to the Taliban’s as a slave. He thinks that they are going to pay him money. Parvana is given some food and water and she leaves. She’s walking for some time before her water supply runs out. She meets a women who’s just sitting still making odd sounds. Parvana tries to talk to her but she’s just ignoring her. She tries to wave in front of her and she scream but she’s like a zombie. Later she notices that the woman is dying, she has lost all hope and is just sitting waiting for death. She then reach a bombed town. There is no one alive but a small baby. Because the baby might die if she leaves it she takes it with her. Good company anyway, she thought and gives him the name Hassan. After that she saw some Talibansoldiers and ran away as fast as she could. She travels for some time and later finds a cave. She thought that she might get some cover in there but when she was on her way in she heard a shout saying: “Get out of my cave!”. Later she finds out that the voice came from a one-legged boy. He is very angry in the beggining but later he gets a bit friendlier because of the food Parvana gives her and he follows her “Just to be irritating and to take care of the baby, Hassan”.

My Dream job

My dream job is to be a comedian, because i think that it would be very fun to travel around the world, making people laugh. A stand-up comedian sounds like someone who travels around Sweden, or somewere else just to tell jokes.

Mini-Comedian school:

 If you want to be a comedian you should be able to make people laugh. There are two known ways to make an performance.

 The first: You practice your own performance and practice and practice etc. Then you make a performance somewere to a small or large group of people/animals. (even if they won’t laugh) Then let them give you credit for what you did do or bad. If you bring in to many swearings then it wont be fun. There is no limit for how funny it may be. But if they die laughing…well then it may be to fun.

The other way: You just step in to the spotlight and start inprovising. It may be a bit hard sometimes but if you keep practising much then you will learn. You can even dub (dubba) TV programs or movies. You can make own humour movies. If you don’t like performing, then just skip it and practice just for fun.

I want to be a comedian because it’s fun. I have always loved making people laugh and smile. My friends usually call me “funny”. Even the teachers thinks that and keeps telling me. Anyway… I think it’s cool.
