Sold

                 
              Sold is about a 10 year old girl who needs money really bad. Her stepdad doesn't like Lakshmi but her mother loves her but she hates step dad. only reason she married the step dad is to get money. Lakshmi lives in a house with no roof. The step dad sells Lakshmi to a woman called auntie bimla for 10 grand to put a roof over there head literally.. Lakshmi first think she getting sold as a maid. Later on in the book Lakshmi get in a room alone with a man than the man start to slowly come closing to Lakshmi. Lakshmi runs out of the room and goes straight to auntie bimla then auntie explains everything to her. Lakshmi slowly learns the truth . The aunt tell her "do you want to leave?"
Lakshmi nod auntie replies " well you can leave as soon as you earn ten grand from all of your customer. Lakshmi doesn't ant to do it at first but then she is drug and then learn/tries to live with the fact she gets raped everyday.Lakshmi start to accept the fact that she will do anything to get out there as soon as possible but at the same time she doesn't want to do it.

              Lakshmi at first hate getting raped every day so to get out of there she needs money from her customer. Lakshmi promised herself that she will stop at nothing to get as much as money fro her customer. On one hand its a good thing she could leave faster, But another hand she is just giving and accepting the face shes a prostitute

                I agree with Lakshmi. She has to pay at least 10 grand in rupees to auntie bimla to get out of the prostitution business. If she needs to take money from the customer then so be it any money at all will benefit her.  For example in the text it says, " I had another customer this one was very wealthy so i did whatever i can to please him and when he went to the bathroom i slowly reached into his pocket and took all of his cash and he didn't even notices a thing". Also Lakshmi did extra thing to get more money. It may be painful but Lakshmi is committed and want to leave as soon as possible.

                 Lakshmi is only ten year old girl who has many choice to do in life, But she live in a poor life where she will do anything for her parent. There are more girls in the world who are being sold against their will.People go to houses where they hold prostitution and other illegal thing. People in america just have kids go to school while outside the country people have no home and then get kidnapped and gets force to do things against there will. Lakshmi happened to be one of those people.

                  In conclusion, Lakshmi want to do anything to get out of her house and see her family. Also anything to make sure the family is safe. Lakshmi gets sold to a prostitution house. She is doing thing against her will. All for her family. She wants to leave the dreadful place and go live with he family but auntie bimla is making that hard for her. She does thing but not against her will but for the money. She really lover her family is she doe anything to see them again.
