| Shauzia
thinks back fondly on her days in Afghanistan. Sure life was perfect.
She and her friend Parvana worked hard to support their families.
But Parvana had gone off in search of her family and Shauzia had gone to
work with the shepherds. But now she was in the refugee camp with
too many people and too little food. She dreams of going to France
and sitting in a lilac field. The only way she can get there is if
she has money. There is no money to be had in the refugee camp so
she sets off to find her fortune. What is waiting for her outside
the camp? |
