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
