Zahra** (girl, ~9 years old) | Protagonist and narrator's eyes. Old enough to understand and retell what happens, to look after her brother, and to carry the story's growth — from fear and helplessness to informed action. | Realistically drawn Afghan girl, plain everyday clothing, tired/worried expressions where appropriate — not idealized. |COVER** - *Illustration:* Zahra standing at the edge of the village at dusk, looking toward the clinic in the distance, expression thoughtful rather than smiling — sets a serious tone from the outset. - *Title:* **The Fever That Traveled** - *Subtitle:* A true story about how measles spreads — and how we stop it - *Author/Illustrator credit line- Paresa Ahmadi* - *Small icon strip:* a vaccine vial and needle, a magnifying glass (screening), — establishing the three-part message before the story even begins.
