The book begins with the death of Mor's baay (father). Although he is only 11 Mor wants to take care of his two sisters and stay in their village (his mother died years before). But his aunt wants to take them to the city where Mor will go to school and his sisters will work. Can Mor find a way to support his sisters and stay out of the local gang?
This was a very quiet book. While I appreciate the glimpse into another culture I am not sure my students will stick with it.
