Shabanu: Daughter of the Wind (Shabanu Series)

The Newbery Honor winner about a heroic Pakistani girl thatÂ The Boston GlobeÂ calledÂ â€œRemarkable . . . a riveting tour de force.â€Â

Life is both sweet and cruel to strong-willed young Shabanu, whose home is the windswept Cholistan Desert of Pakistan. The second daughter in a family with no sons, sheâ€™s been allowed freedoms forbidden to most Muslim girls. But when a tragic encounter with a wealthy and powerful landowner ruins the marriage plans of her older sister, Shabanu is called upon to sacrifice everything sheâ€™s dreamed of. Should she do what is necessary to uphold her familyâ€™s honorâ€”or listen to the stirrings of her own heart?
