 reviewed Iqbal on
This book tells the inspiring story of one child in Pakistan who escapes from a life of child slavery and child labor and who then goes on to work for the freedom of other children. It is a very moving account and very well written. A great book to broaden the horizons of any middle schooler. The author has basically fictionalized a true story which makes it all the more moving when you find out the truth. Highly recommended!
