Written by Hena Khan, Illustrated by Safiya Zerrougui
This book is about a Muslim girl who moves from Florida to Wisconsin. She tries out for a basketball team and becomes a freshman co-captain on a girls basketball team. Some things I liked about this book are that the main characters are Muslim and I like that they learned to get along. If you like basketball then I think you will like this book. Over all, they just stand out and are proud of it. One thing that I really like about this book is that its a graphic novel and I like graphic novels because I get more feeling out of them because I can see the characters and I can see better how they feel and it gives me a better picture on what’s happening the story.
