For readers ages 10-14.
This month, we’re reading We Are Big Time by Hena Khan:
Aliya is new to Wisconsin, and everything feels different than Florida. The Islamic school is bigger, the city is colder, and her new basketball team is…well, they stink.
Aliya’s still excited to have teammates (although the team’s captain, Noura, isn’t really Aliya’s biggest fan), and their new coach really understands basketball (even if she doesn’t know much about being Muslim). This season should be a blast…if they could just start to win. As they strengthen their skills on the court, Aliya and the Peace Academy team discover that it takes more than talent to be great–it’s teamwork and self-confidence that defines true success.
The book is available for pickup in the at the Children’s Desk or in the Teen Room.
Tween Graphic Novel Book Club will meet in the Maker Space.
