Faces in the Water
by Ranjit Lal
Fifteen-year-old Gurmi has always believed the well at his family's farmhouse is the secret behind their good fortune. Then he looks into it and sees the faces of three girls looking back at him. This moving story deals gently with female infanticide and with how families treat sons and daughters differently. It is sad and sometimes funny, and it gives older children and teens plenty to think about and talk over.
