Amina's Voice

A Washington Post Best Childrenâ€™s Book of 2017

â€œFor inspiring empathy in young readers, you canâ€™t get better than this book.â€ â€”R. J. Palacio, author of #1 New York Timesbestseller Wonder

â€œAminaâ€™s anxieties are entirely relatable, but itâ€™s her sweet-hearted nature that makes her such a winning protagonist.â€ â€”Entertainment Weekly

A Pakistani-American Muslim girl struggles to stay true to her familyâ€™s vibrant culture while simultaneously blending in at school after tragedy strikes her community in this â€œcompassionate, timely novelâ€ (Booklist, starred review) from the award-winning author of Itâ€™s Ramadan, Curious George and Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns.

Amina has never been comfortable in the spotlight. She is happy just hanging out with her best friend, Soojin. Except now that sheâ€™s in middle school everything feels different. Soojin is suddenly hanging out with Emily, one of the â€œcoolâ€ girls in the class, and even talking about changing her name to something more â€œAmerican.â€ Does Amina need to start changing too? Or hiding who she is to fit in? While Amina grapples with these questions, she is devastated when her local mosque is vandalized.

Aminaâ€™s Voice brings to life the joys and challenges of a young Pakistani-American and highlights the many ways in which one girlâ€™s voice can help bring a diverse community together to love and support each other.
