School is tough enough without throwing a hijab into the mix...
Amal is a 16-year-old Melbourne teen with all the usual obsessions
about boys, exams, chocolate and magazines. She's also a Muslim,
struggling to honour the Islamic faith in a society that doesn't
understand it. The story of her decision to "shawl up" and its
attendant anxieties (like how much eyeliner to wear) is funny,
surprising and touching by turns. Exploring issues of faith and
identity with the lightest of touches, this is a joyful exploration
of what it means to be a Muslim teenager "...a bright, articulate
heroine true to herself and her faith. Abdel-Fattah's fine first
novel offers a world of insight..." Kirkus Reviews Look out for
Randa Abdel-Fattah's other books: Ten Things I Hate About Me and
Where the Streets had a name
