Book Talk


Sold
By Patricia McCormick

Told in powerful vignettes, Sold by Patricia McCormick is a haunting tale of a girl from Nepal who thought she was going to be a maid, but instead finds that she ahs been sold into child prostitution.  Though the topic is quite heavy, through the voice of 13-year-old Lakshmi your eyes will be opened to the reality of modern-day slavery.  An important and enthralling read.
