Book Description
===================
A young girl must find a way to help her family survive in a desolate
and impoverished Bolivian silver mining community in this eye-opening
tale of resilience.
Twelve-year-old Ana wants nothing more than to escape the future set
for her and her classmates in her small mining village. Boys her age
are beginning to leave school to become silver miners and girls her
age are destined to one day be the wives of miners. But when her often
ill eleven-year-old brother is forced by their demanding father to
start work in the mines, Ana gives up her dreams of school to
volunteer in his place. The world of silver mining though is dark and
dangerous and the men who work there don’t want a girl in their way.
Ana must find the courage to not only survive but save her family
after the worst happens and a mining accident kills her father and
leaves her brother missing.
