We are big time

Sound recording - 2024

"SWISH! Cheer courtside for a Muslim teen in this graphic novel--inspired by a true story--as she joins an all-girls, hijab-wearing basketball team and learns that basketball is much more than the score. 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 Noura's not 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. Join Aliya and the Peace Academy on a headline-making season where they strengthen their s...kills and their Muslim identities--all while discovering that it takes more than talent to be great, and that teamwork and self-confidence can define true success."-Publisher website.
