Publisher's Synopsis
Josephine and Yasmeen are Muslim American girls living in Orange County, California. Josephine is co-founder of the Interfaith Club at her school. She is an outgoing teenager who loves hosting slumber parties with her friends, working on community service projects, coming up with fun ideas, and trying to live the way God wants her to live. A Caucasian American, Josephine lives with her single mom. Yasmeen is Arab American and the oldest of five children. She wants to live the teenage dream before she graduates from high school. She does not agree with how her family has raised her, and thinks it is unfair that she doesn't get to experience the freedom other kids her age enjoy. She can't wait to graduate and move away from home. Her goal is to become a cosmetologist. This delightful novel is filled with fun, happiness and heartaches, trials and turmoil, and important life lessons that Josephine, Yasmeen, and their friends experience throughout their teenage years. Josephine and Yasmeen come from distinctly different backgrounds, but they join their girlfriends every Friday night for great times in The Hijabi Club!
