This book reminds me a bit of My Brother's Keeper (another great read about the Korean War), but set in India at the time of their freedom from Britain and the creation of Pakistan. It's a great middle grade read. Highly recommend.

There is near death of a child and the main character is coping with the death of her mother, though we do not have detail of her death and it was in the past.kathischm's review against another edition
