When I was a little girl, there was a small lilac grove at my house that I swore was a magical portal to fantastical worlds. I would enter it a regular kid and exit a sword wielding fairy who battled evil jinn. It’s a tale I wanted to read & live in but could never find on shelves.

So I wrote a story for that little kid and all the kids like her.

AMIRA & HAMZA: THE WAR TO SAVE THE WORLDS is on shelves today & I hope you’ll love this story of bickering siblings & medieval Islamic astronomy & shapeshifting creatures of fire as much as I do.

On sale everywhere books are sold (link in bio). Signed copies available at @booksofwonder @wcfbook @57thstreetbooks.

And…AMIRA & HAMZA blurb excerpt # 3 from the absolutely wonderful Trenton Lee Stewart! The Mysterious Benedict Society is brilliant and a family fave so I was gobsmacked by these generous words! Read the series & then watch the TV show because they’re both utterly charming.

AMIRA & HAMZA: THE WAR TO SAVE THE WORLDS has an early launch this weekend and hits shelves on Tuesday (which I’ve now said one million times, sorry!) I just can’t wait for this book to be in the world.

…And blurb excerpt #2 for AMIRA & HAMZA: THE WAR TO SAVE THE WORLDS from my pal and amazing writer @mbalia1 who claims he is the creator of the brilliant Gum Baby (we all know Gum Baby created herself, duh) and is author of the incredible Tristan Strong series. Kwame and I will be in conversation on 10/5 @the_dock_bookshop as we celebrate the release of Tristan Strong Keeps Punching! Please join us for shenanigans and a lot of talk about snacks (me) and maybe some dad jokes (him). Also, kids saving the world!

It’s almost here! My early book launch with the fabulous @pacylin hosted by the amazing @booksofwonder! Head over to their website to register (for free) for this virtual red carpet event!

And by red carpet, I mean the one I am imagining! Who will I be wearing? Will it be something from my high school closet? Vintage desi clothes? Will I be dripping with Harry Winston jewels (I don’t know but my publicist @sienatk might have a surprise for me and I’m pretty sure it’s giant diamonds)!

Join us for a fun (for the whole family) afternoon this Saturday 3pm ET!

Signed copies of AMIRA & HAMZA are available for preorder at BoW now!

Didn’t get to do a formal unboxing video for AMIRA & HAMZA because finished copies were delivered while I was away from home and some neighborhood troublemakers got into my mail. *harrumphs*

Preorder signed copies from @booksofwonder @57thstreetbooks @wcfbook!
