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
