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

Readers follow Amal, a 16-year-old "Australian-Muslim-Palestinian," as she makes the decision to wear the Muslim head scarf full-time. She knows that she will face ridicule at her fancy prep school and readers are treated to hilarious discussions and come-backs as she fights stereotyped thinking from all directions. Amal is a typical teenager in many ways and the book is light-hearted while making clear the reality of Islamic faith. Enlightening and fun.
