Although Marjane is just a young little girl she still worries about others like her grandma ,"can I help you."(26). She asked her grandma if she could help her with anything after she had come of a long day with aching feet. 

Marjane is so against the killing going of in the revolution that she is even willing to punish her classmates whos parents are involved in the war. "In the name of the dead million, we'll teach Ramin a good lesson."(45). She is going to show Ramin a lesson for something he did not do because his father murdered millions. 

QUESTIONS:
