The Child Bride

 Nonfiction by Cathy Glass


In this book, fourteen-year-old Zeena reports to her school that she is being abused and she is removed from her traditional Bangladeshi parents while the police investigate her claims. At Cathy Glass's home, Zeena is surprised that she is not required to perform all the chores she had been forced to do at home. But, as one might guess from the title, slave labor was the very least of Zeena's problems at home.

This was a shocking story and the ending was a surprise.

I also read recently by this author: Nobody's Son
