Hijabi Girl: What It Takes

by Hazel Edwards & Ozge Alkan 

A funny and adventurous chapter book about what it takes to be a team and a captain.

Dear Goannas, You are invited to play a friendly exhibition game against the Euclid Street Primary School Sharks next month.

Melek’s Australian Rules Football team dream is about to come true. She becomes the captain of Goannas footy team with Miss as their coach. Just when Melek finds players other than her best friends and lets boys play, there’s another problem. They don’t have money for uniforms. Luckily, the co-captains of design, Tien and Lily, have the most delicious idea ever for a fun-raiser.
