Does My Head Look Big in This?
by Randa Abdel-Fattah
Here comes an addition to two of my shelves
1. "My Favourites" Shelf
2. "I wish I had such books growing up" Shelf
Hilarious & thought provoking- 'Does My Head Look Big in this" by Randa Abdel Fattah is a coming of age story where the main protagonist decides to take on the headscarf & is left to face the 'responsibility' that comes with it. Honestly I think I am confining it by describing it as that... because its SO MUCH MORE!
it's about friendship, its about diversity, its about being a teenager, its about empowerment, it's about growing up in a different culture than your parents, its about recognising the wrongs and the rights, it's about family, its about Islam, it's about Muslims, it's about how some Muslims mistake cultural rulings with Islamic rulings, it's about acceptance, its about tolerance, it's about representation, it's about understanding, its about toxic cultural aspects, it's about breaking them...
Overall it's just sooooo wholesome and humorous at the same time
