The Rickshaw Girl Update

            (SORRY FOR THE WEIRD WHITE BACKGROUND, IT WON'T GO AWAY D;) 

    Asalamwalikum everyone! So we recently have acquired 36 rickshaws, which helps 36 different Bangladeshi families! This blog post is about the book, Rickshaw Girl. Meryem and Huda Kose from NC told us earlier that they had received this book as a present. They contacted the author and it looks like Mitali Perkins has offered to give us the books at a discount and we will be selling them for the Rickshaw Project. 

             I  found a summary of what the book is about and it seems to target exactly why we are trying to raise awareness for the rickshaw drivers in Bangladesh. The book is about a ten year old named Naima from Bangladesh who is struggling to get money for her poor family. She tries to raise money with her paintings, but it's not use. Naima wants to dress up as a boy and start to drive her father's rickshaw. When she goes to execute her plan something goes wrong, and I won't say anymore in case you would like to purchase the book!

        The entire rickshaw team has decided to buy the books and we are planning to sell them. (If any of the other states are please planning on buying the books, please contact me at @sabzzz1315@gmail.com and Huda's email.)
