Hi Kelli–I think it would. I guess it depends how mature the tween is. There are definitely some mature family situations (kids left at home while parents work, with older kids having to care for them, and sad losses of other family relatives — that sort of thing). But if there was profanity, there wasn’t a lot of it, and I don’t remember any other mature adult themes.

Would this be appropriate for a tween to read? I haven’t read it yet myself though I have it on reserve at the library.

This is a book that is definitely on my to-read list. I love memoirs and books that tell about cultures outside of my own. This is both! Jackpot! Three Cups of Tea is on my bookshelf, too, and I will be getting to it sometime this year.

Oh, I’ve had TCOT on my shelf for a while now, and I think I’ll have to get this one, too!

This book sounds fabulous! I fall into the catagory of liking the IDEA of Three Cups of Tea but found the writing less than appealing. This book sounds like one I would enjoy. Thanks for the review of it!
