(3) 4-6 In the spring of 1998, the life of eleven-year-old Zana, an Albanian Kosovar, is shattered when Serb militiamen murder her father and brothers. Injured herself, Zana learns to follow her father's wish: that she not let the Serb military "fill [her] heart with hate." Mead writes lucidly and honestly about a child of war. An introduction provides historical context.
