Saving Sunshine
Saving Sunshine | Saadia Faruqi
1 post | 2 read
From Saadia Faruqi and Shazleen Khan comes a relatable, funny, and heart-wrenchingly honest graphic novel about Muslim American siblings who must learn how to stop fighting and support each other in a world that is often unkind. It's hard enough being a kid without being teased for a funny sounding name or wearing a hijab. It's even harder when you're constantly fighting your sibling—and Zara and Zeeshan really can't stand each other. During a family trip to Florida, when the bickering, shoving, and insults reach new heights of chaos, their parents sentence them to the worst possible fate— each other’s company! But when the twins find an ailing turtle, it presents a rare opportunity for teamwork—if the two can put their differences aside at last.

I really liked the story, I feel like it had a strong message. However, I think it was trying to do too much in the short amount of pages it had. There was a lot to deal with, and the author did an okay job. It all just needed a bit more to truly feel complete.
