Cindy Sue on Nostr: The Red Pencil was a wonderful middle grade novel in verse about a 12 year old girl ...

The Red Pencil was a wonderful middle grade novel in verse about a 12 year old girl in Sudan in 2004. Her village is attacked by the Janjaweed and her father is killed. Her family escapes to a refugee camp where she is given a red pencil and note pad. Her dream is to learn to read and write and come back to teach others. A book of hope. Very glad to have taken the time to read it.
