Shabanu is the youngest daughter of the best camel herder in the Cholistan desert. Life in the desert can be very difficult. As her sister Phulans wedding draws ever close, Shabanu knows that their family will never be whole again. Most of this book centers around what life is like in the Cholistan. The last few chapters are quite plot-intensive, making the whole book worthwhile for readers who are expecting an adventure.
