This series of Child-to-Child Readers focuses on the rights of the Girl Child and encourages children to reflect on the way that girls - and boys - are treated in their families and communities. This book tells the story of Leonora, the third daughter to be born, and her father, who is so disappointed not to have a son that he disappears and is presumed dead. Many years later Leonora saves a man's life. He says he would be proud to have a daughter like her - but who is this man? The story illustrates how boys and girls should be valued equally in the family.
