Heartbreakingly inspirational. (AsianWeek)
Ma Yan's heart-wrenching, honest diary chronicles her struggle to escape hardship through her persistent, sometimes desperate, attempts to continue her schooling.
In a drought-stricken corner of rural China, an education can be the difference between a life of crushing poverty and the chance for a better future. But for Ma Yan, money is scarce, and the low wages paid for backbreaking work aren't always enough to pay school fees, or even to provide enough food for herself and her family.
The publication of The Diary of Ma Yan was an international sensation, creating an outpouring of support for this courageous teenager and others like her . . . all due to one ordinary girl's extraordinary diary.
"You don't review this small book; you tell people about it and say, 'Read it.'" (Washington Post)
- Based on a True Story: Discover the authentic, unaltered diary of Ma Yan, a young girl whose honest words sparked an international movement and gave a voice to millions.
- The Fight for an Education: Follow Ma Yan's courageous and often heartbreaking quest to stay in school when her family can no longer afford the fees, knowing it's her only hope for a different future.
- A Portrait of Poverty: Experience the daily reality of a life shaped by drought, backbreaking work, and constant hunger, where a simple ballpoint pen is a luxury that costs fifteen days of food.
- Family, Hope, and Sacrifice: Witness the profound love of a mother who works hundreds of miles from home so her daughter can study, and a daughter determined not to let that sacrifice be in vain.
