The book was ended nicely, and answered most of my questions I had wondered throughout the book. In the last chapter Parvana's father came back, and although he looked very different and older, Parvana knew who he was and was so thankful he had returned. Parvana's father didn't talk much, but when he got better she read him his books, and continued to go to the marketplace and get water. Parvana's friend Shauzia, who she met at the market, announced that she wanted to get away from Afghanistan so she didn't have to get married. Parvana was unsure if this was the right decision or not, but comforted her friend anyway. One night Mrs Weera came home and told Parvana that lots of people had fled Mazar, and were staying in refugee camps outside the city. She wonders if her mother and family had to do the same, but Mrs Weera was unsure.
