The Story of My Life: An Afghan Girl on the Other Side of the Sky recounts an epic journey. When Farah steps on a land mine on her way to school, her world becomes much smaller than the dreams and hopes in her heart. Bombs are falling all over her country, and her native Kabul is swelling with thousands of people looking for homes and jobs. This audiobook is the result of the most ambitious search ever conducted to publish an extraordinary life story.įarah Ahmedi is born into the world just as the war between the mujahideen and the Soviets reaches its peak in Afghanistan. After a panel of bestselling authors and editors chose three finalists, America was given the opportunity to vote on which aspiring author's story would be published. When ABC News' Good Morning America asked its viewers to write essays describing true-life experiences, the network never imagined receiving more than twenty thousand pages of inspiring stories.
