SUMMER BOOK GROUP for students entering Grades 6, 7 & 8
Teens entering grades 6, 7 and 8, register to have a copy of the “book” Amal Unbound” reserved for you and pick it up at the first session on Monday, June 24th, 4pm. We’ll meet weekly (June 24, July 8, 15 and 22 at 4pm) to discuss our reading and enjoy snacks and themed activities.
Twelve-year-old Amal’s dream of becoming a teacher one day is dashed when she accidentally insults a member of her Pakistani village’s ruling family. As punishment, she is forced to leave her heartbroken family behind and go work at their estate. She summons her courage and begins navigating the complex rules of life as a servant. Most troubling, though, is Amal’s increasing awareness of the deadly measures the Khan family will go to in order to stay in control. It’s clear that their hold over her village will never loosen as long as everyone is too afraid to challenge them–so if Amal is to have any chance of ensuring her loved ones’ safety and winning back her freedom, she must find a way to work with the other servants to make it happen.
