Congrats to Hazel Edwards on the launch of
Hijabi Girl
Co-written by Ozge Alkan, illustrated by Serena Geddes
Published by BookPOD, in paperback
For lower to mid primary readers.
Librarian and co-author Ozge's students wanted a character for a Book Parade who looked like them, so Hijabi Girl was born. 8 year old Aussie Rules fan Melek writes her own story. Helped by soccer-mad Zac, newcomer young artist Tien, Lily the dress up guru and awesome teacher Miss.
What a wonderful and intriguing pedigree - congrats again Hazel!
