Description

Students from Diamond Valley College and the International School of Kabul share their stories: "There is dirt on my face. I do not care about anything else in the world except for what I am writing." - Paige Dwyer. "After twenty-five years, my father and uncle have moved back to Afghanistan. My father says, 'You are going to build this country again'." - Shaheer. "My family had to run on foot because, although we had a car, my dad just had a learner's permit and he dared not drive." - My Nguyen and Thuy Nguyen. "I am an Afghan and I am proud of it." - Rahiba. "We had one terrible day in February 2009, Afghanistan has had 30 years of war. This is not a book of remembrance or a book that desires to shock, it is a book about what is best about human nature." - Neil Grant.
