Iqbal
When Iqbal is sold into slavery at a carpet factory, he changes everything for the other overworked and abused children there. Iqbal explains that despite their master’s promises, he plans on keeping them as his slaves indefinitely. Iqbal also inspires the other children to look to a future free from toil…and is brave enough to show them how to get there.
This fictionalized account of the real Iqbal Masih is told through the voice of Fatima, a young Pakistani girl whose life is changed by Iqbal’s courage.
