I listened to the audio version of this book, which was very well done. The story is powerful and raw and tells the story of a 14 year old girl in Nigeria who is forced to marry an old man as his third wife. She later runs away only to be enslaved as a house maid to a woman who beats her. Yet through it all, she remains strong, wanting to become a teacher to help other girls become educated. I highly recommend this book.
