More than anything, Raman dreams of buying the beautiful book under a glass case in the marketplace and of one day becoming a scholar. His dreams come crashing down when his family faces hard times. Raman is forced to leave school and instead gather pine cones in the hills to sell for firewood. An unexpected turn of events gives Raman hope and sends him into the hills in search of something other than pine cones. Beautiful description and exciting plot are combined with profound messages about family, education, hard work, persistence, honesty, and sacrifice." -- Back cover. 650 0 $a Families $z India $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Education $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Persistence $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Honesty $v Juvenile fiction. 651 0 $a India $v Juvenile fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010033409.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=373BE4B4673311EEBF3E118F48ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b UIBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
