Review of "Mahtab's story" on 'Goodreads'

No rating

Read for Asian Readathon 2021 - Asian Protagonist (Afghanistan)

I don't think this is the kind of book you can rate, it was powerful, emotional, and frustrating. Frustrating because I wanted to jump into the book and help Mahtab and her family, and frustrating because I know refugees in this country need to be treated so much better, especially children.

I say this as someone who hates telling or being told to read a book: Every Australian needs to read this book.
