![]() ![]() ![]() With her father’s lawyer bills and her grandfather’s treatment, Aafiyah is worried that her family is struggling for money. Her grandfather, Dada Abu, travels to Atlanta for cancer treatment with Aafiyah, her mother and younger brother leaving her father and grandmother behind. On the way home from visiting her grandparents in Pakistan, her father is accused of stealing and subsequently detained. Sometimes Aafiyah keeps them and other times she gives them back. She has “itchy fingers” because she loves to borrow things. Seventh grader Aafiyah loves playing tennis, learning weird but true facts, and hanging with her best friend Zaina. Kellee Moye of Unleashing Readers and Jen Vincent of Teach Mentor Texts decided to give it a #kidlit focus and encourage everyone who participates to visit at least 3 of the other #kidlit book bloggers that link up and leave comments for them. Bella and I are excited to share our latest reads in It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? #IMWAYR is a community of bloggers who link up to share what they are reading. ![]()
