Silk Umbrellas by Leanne Marsden
Imagine if you had to work in a radio factory with tiny parts... day in and day out! It's not hard for Noi to imagine... and dread!
Genre: Realistic fiction, international (Thailand )
Summary: Noi’s sister has to work in the radio factory and Noi does not want the same fate. Will her art save her?
Review: This is a sweet book and shows an insight into life in rural Thailand. I really liked the main character and thought she was very "real" in her worries and struggles. I could feel her emotions - but wasn't dragged into it with a lot of detail. It read pretty quickly, but don't expect action and adventure!
Rating: 4 out of 5 because I like the story line and it moves quickly.
This book reminds me of Clay Marble.
