tcbueti 's review for:

The Breadwinner: A Graphic Novel by Nora Twomey, Deborah Ellis
3.0

Evidently (I read the original a long time ago) this changes major plot points: Mrs. Weera isn't there to help, and Parvana goes alone to find her father. There's also a former student (now Taliban follower) of her father menacing them. Also less nuanced/more stereotypical in terms of the characterization of men in Afghanistan.
So readers of the original may be disappointed, but for those who are curious about other childhoods, this might be an entree to the original book.
