Twelve-yera-old Ma Yan knew that getting an education was the only way out of her drought-stricken rural village. So even as her family struggled to find enough to eat, let alone pay her school fees, she was determined to continue her studies. This firsthand account of her fight was discovered by a foreign journalist-and eventually became Ma Yan’s ticket out of a life of poverty. Black-and-white photos. Explanatory notes and commentary.
