1. Why did Parvana's family embrace Shauzia as if she was an old friend, even though they had not met her before?

Parvanna's family might have embraced Shauzia as if she was an old friend maybe because she is the first girl they have found just like Parvanna and she is Parvanna's age and they are friend well not close friends but they know each other.

2. How do you think Parvana felt about running into Shauzia. How would you feel in Parvana's situation? Make a connection to an experience you've had, or another text.

I think Parvanna felt happy and relief that she was not the only one who had to pretend to be a boy and when she looked carefully at the other's she could tell that they were also girls from her school who had to pretend to be a boy.

3. Why might Parvana feel uncomfortable about digging up bones for money? Would you dig up the bones? Explain your thinking.

I think Parvana feels uncomfortable about digging bones for money because she doesn't want to get in trouble and she feels that it's wrong. I would dig up the bones if I really need the money because which other way can I earn money and have enough pay for all the fees?

4. Why did Parvana keep her work digging up bones a secret from her family. Try and come up with a least two reasons.

Parvana keep her job digging bones from her family because she knows that her mother would declare her doing it and the money Parvana earns selling and reading letters is enough for food and tea but not enough for rent and other things too.
