I am reviewing a copy of The Kid on the Green Bike through Green Bike Publishing and Netgalley:
At only fifteen Wali Mailatyar had a choice to make either get conscripted to fight in the bloody civil war between the communists and the mujahedeen devastating his country or leave his home and family and possibly never see them again.
Wali ended up escaping his homeland and embarking on a long journey that would eventually lead him to stand for election in Arizona as a candidate for governor.
In this book we learned how Wali fought against the odds to escape the horrors of war engulfing his homeland and to find the American Dream.
The Kid on the Green Bike is more than just another immigrant story—it’s part action thriller and part family drama.
This book is filled with cinematic scenes and heartbreaking stories of love and loss, this book shows all of us that the American Dream is still very much alive if you’re willing to fight for it.
If you love stories about underdogs beating to odds, the triumph of love, or the importance of family, this book is for you.
Just like coming to the United States for the first time changed the course of Wali’s life, this book will change the way you see the world and America’s role in making it a better place.
I give The Kid On the Green Bike five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
