E.L.A- The Breadwinner

In E.L.A we are doing Novel Study with our student teacher, Miss Szymesko. The novel we are working on right now is The Breadwinner by Deborah Ellis. The story takes place in Afghanistan, and it's about an 11 year old girl who has to disguise herself as a boy after her dad is arrested for seeking education in England. She now replaces her dad as the breadwinner (the person who earns the income for the family), endures a lot of hardships, and meets new and old friends throughout the story.
In the time we have had working on the book, we've had 2 quizzes and have had to answer reading comprehension questions for each chapter.
