pain that comes with it. I believe everyone has experienced some form of mental health or knows of someone who has so this book is relatable.

Aya A. Khalil is the published author of two vibrant children’s books: “The Arabic Quilt” and “The Night Before Eid.” She is also a freelance journalist who has contributed to various notable media. She found a lack of the use of the Arabic language in the book market as well as an underrepresentation of Arab authors.

Rabina Khan’s “My Hair is Pink Under This Veil” is out TODAY, the 20th of May, 2021.

That is why we need a book like this on every bookshelf; it’s a book that will stir up discussions that most choose to avoid, but NEED to have!
