One such book is 'Room' by Emma Donoghue. It tells the story of a young woman who was kidnapped and held captive in a small room, and the life she builds there with her young son who was born as a result of her captor's abuse. It's a harrowing but ultimately hopeful story.
There's 'A Stolen Life' by Jaycee Dugard. This is her own account of being kidnapped at the age of 11 and held captive for 18 years. She details her experiences during that long and difficult time, from the abuse she endured to how she managed to keep some sense of self throughout it all.
The book 'The Lovely Bones' by Alice Sebold also involves a kidnapped girl. It's told from the perspective of the murdered girl (who was kidnapped first) in heaven, as she watches her family and killer from above. It's a poignant exploration of grief, love, and the aftermath of a terrible crime.
Another book could be 'The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara' by David I. Kertzer. Although it's not exactly about a girl, it's a true story of a young boy being kidnapped under religious pretexts in the 19th century. It shows the power dynamics and the inhumane actions that can occur during such events and can be related to the broader topic of kidnappings.

It might be. True stories often get turned into books to raise awareness or share someone's harrowing experience. But one would need to research the background and author's claims to confirm its authenticity.
The book 'True Grit' by Charles Portis has elements that could be related. The main character, Mattie Ross, is a young girl who goes on a journey in the Old West. While not a traditional kidnapping story, she is in a dangerous situation and has to deal with some tough characters, much like what could be expected in a story about a kidnapped girl in the west. It's a classic with a strong female protagonist.
There's the story of Jaycee Dugard. She was kidnapped in 1991 at the age of 11. Her kidnapper, Phillip Garrido, held her captive in his backyard for 18 years. During that time, Jaycee had two daughters by Garrido. She was finally discovered when Garrido visited a university campus with his 'family' and some odd behavior led to an investigation. Jaycee's story is a harrowing account of long - term captivity and abuse.

One such book is 'Room' by Emma Donoghue. It tells the story of a boy who is held captive in a small room with his mother. It's a powerful and moving story that shows the bond between mother and son in a very difficult situation.
Another theme is the impact on family. The families of the kidnapped girls are often left in a state of turmoil and despair. In 'The Lovely Bones', Susie's family is shattered by her disappearance and murder. They struggle to come to terms with their loss while trying to find justice.
I'm not sure if there is a book specifically titled with exactly those words, but there are many memoirs out there that might fit the bill. Some true - story books about people who have overcome physical challenges often touch on themes related to a girl with a burned face. You could search in the genre of biographies or memoirs in your local library or online bookstore.
