After her father left Lebanon to find work and her mother tragically died in a shell attack, ten-year-old Ayesha has been living in the bomb-ravaged city of Beirut with her granny and her two younger brothers.

Summary:

I really liked reading this book because it was short but very detailed and well-plotted. It made me want to keep reading until I finished the book because it was such a page turner!
