Rising After the Fall: Afghan women share their stories

Using extracts from their collective diary on WhatsApp, kept during and following the fall of Kabul in 2021, this book gives children aged 8-12 personal and compelling snapshots from a woman writer’s perspective.

Packed with details about life both before and after Taliban took over in August 2021, each chapter will help to provide children with a better understanding of life in Afghanistan.

Fully illustrated by Afghan artist Sara Rahmani.
