Does My Head Look Big in This? Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

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, chocolate and Cosmo magazine. 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. "...a bright, articulate heroine true to herself and her faith.

Abdel-Fattah's fine first novel offers a world of insight..." Kirkus Reviews
