          Deborah EllisCM OOnt (born August 7, 1960) is a Canadian fiction writer and activist.

          One of my favorite ways to explore human rights with students is through the use of Deborah Ellis's novels, specifically The Breadwinner.

        1. Author Deborah Ellis travels across the continent, interviewing more than forty Native American kids and letting them tell their own stories.
        2. Sarah Ellis (author) · Marian Engel · Tommy Enuaraq · Eva Everything Marianne Macdonald · Claire Mackay · Kyo Maclear · Maestro Fresh Wes.
        3. Young Marianne is one of the lucky ones.
        4. The acquiescence to oligarchy - believing Elon Musk's money or technological genius makes him smarter or wiser than anyone else about the.
        5. Her themes are often concerned with the sufferings of persecuted children in the Third World.

          Early life

          Born in Cochrane Ontario, Ellis and her family moved several times during her childhood due to her parents' work.

          Ellis started writing when she was 11 or 12 years old.[1]

          Career

          Much of her work as a writer has been inspired by her travels and conversations with people from around the world and their stories (like the Breadwinner where she went to Afghanistan to meet refugees) .

          She has held many jobs advocating for the peace movement and
