Jody Hultman's Reviews > Shabanu: Daughter of the Wind

This is one of those books that I thought was SOOOOO GOOOOOD....when I was 12. I'm afraid to read it again, as my taste has probably changed since then. I like keeping in my childhood capsule of memory- untarnished and still favored. You know what I'm talking about. I watched Flight of the Navigator the a few years back. It was SOOOOO GOOOOD, too. Uh, no. Lame, annoying and I'll never watch it again. I should have left well enough alone.

Though, if memory serves, I think it gives a fairly accurate account of Pakistanian life. And, I remember making my mom read it (who does not read) and she loved it, so I won't write if off completely. Maybe when I'm in my rocking chair I'll reread it.
