The original French book has the full story. In English the story was divided into two books. Book two is titled "It is not so easy to live". Book two is out of print but it is still available as a used book. I read the first book and I was unhappy with its unconclusive ending. I was left wondering what happened next. It seemed to me that there must be a second book that brings her odyssey to a conclusion. Hopefully a happy conclusion. The second part tells the story of how after many challenging adventures the story ends in France. That is the reason why the book was published in French. You could find the french book with the full story at www.amazon.fr (ISBN : 2213010307 or ISBN : 2253003220)
