You Never Know What to Expect
I knew that our ninth text was in the form of a comic book beforehand, but I had no clue what to expect. It was a really touching story, reading about this girl and her life growing up during that time. In the beginning, she starts off with such naiveness, such as how she would be the next prophet so that she old people wouldn't suffer anymore, which I believe is how kids should be. By the time the story is finished though, she has grown past those simple times of believing she could be the next great prophet. Although she still had things to learn, she was forced to grow up way too quickly, even leaving her parents and her country at the young age of fourteen. I mean, by fourteen, you have grown and matured, but not enough to be leaving your parents with the possibility of never seeing them again.

I nominate this post for POW. I too enjoyed that our last book is a comic book. I also enjoyed watching the girl evolve over time.
