O knihe
I squint through the rising heat waves of
the stifling Cambodian sun. They beat down on me like the
cane my father uses at home when I bring home no money.
Carved faces watch me pitifully through their dark, stone
eyes. I stare back at them, determined not to look away...

Elizabeth Anne Biddle, and a Cambodian girl, A Girl Called
Nothing is a vibrant collection including an original short
story, Cambodian myths, legends, and history, accompanied by

Cambodia. Perfect for anyone who loves history, adventure,

countries of the twenty-first century. By purchasing this
