Does My Head Look Big in This? by Randa Abdel-Fattah

4.0

Although a bit didactic in spots, the author does a great job of sharing Amal's story and making her perspective clear. I liked Amal and her family. I have read so many "problem" or "angsty" books that I kept waiting for the shoe to drop and something terrible or embarassing to happen to Amal. Instead, it was a slice of life that intelligently looks at current issues in an overall lighthearted way. Big fan.
