It’s 2010, and Isra has been so busy preparing for a poetry contest and her eleventh birthday party, she’s barely noticed the tensions rising in her town. But when her birthday is interrupted by news that a man named Bouazizi is dead, Isra’s world is turned upside down. Suddenly, school is cancelled, people are protesting in the streets, and soldiers have swarmed the town. As Isra learns more about her country's past and present, she discovers that resistance requires more than just courage—it takes creativity, too.
Based on the real life of author Isra Moussaoui, co-written by award-winning author Beth Bacon, and featuring magnetic illustrations from Noha Habaieb, this graphic novel is a timely and personal account of coming of age amidst political upheaval.
