A great adventure story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Nadia the Willful was a great story. The setting of the story was in the Middle East many years ago. The main characters were Madia, Sheik and Tari. My favorite character was Nadia because she always helped people. I would recommend this book to people ten to thirteen years old.

This story is about a girl and her dead bother. She talked about her brother and it eases the pain. She lived in a tribe. Her tribe lived in the desert. They owned a bunch of sheep.
Nadia teaches us that the ones we love live on in our hearts

This is a wonderful story about the different reactions to death told through a child's eyes. It is a somewhat simplistic story about a sister and her family's loss of the oldest brother. When you lose a loved one you have two choices; to try to block out the pain and in the process block out the memory of that person or to celebrate that life keeping the memory alive in your heart.
