Story4.5 out of 5 stars 11
Omid needs the right words to connect with his newly met grandfather and distant Iranian heritage, words to tell a special girl what she means to him and to show everyone that he truly belongs in Tucson, Arizona, the only home he’s ever known. Neither the school play’s Shakespearean English nor his parents’ Farsi seems up to the task, and it’s only when Omid delves into the rhymes and rhythms of rap music that he starts to find his voice. But even as he does so, an act of terrorism transforms familiar accents into new threats.

Extremely well written in a very fun, digestible format. The connection to the characters for me was almost immediate. The story took me back to what it felt like to be in high school… all the insecurities and fun. I think there are a lot of good lessons embedded into this book and I will definitely be reading it to my kids
