The Magical Reality of Nadia Publisher's summary

A hilarious and heartfelt story about prejudice, friendship, empathy, and courage.

Nadia loves fun facts. Here are a few about her:

  • She collects bobbleheads - she has 77 so far.
  • She moved from Egypt to America when she was six years old.
  • The hippo amulet she wears is ancient...as in it’s literally from ancient Egypt.
  • She’s going to win the contest to design a new exhibit at the local museum. Because how cool would that be?!

(Okay, so that last one isn’t a fact just yet, but Nadia has plans to make it one.)

But then a new kid shows up and teases Nadia about her Egyptian ethnicity. It’s totally unexpected, and totally throws her off her game.

And something else happens that Nadia can't explain: Her amulet starts glowing! She soon discovers that the hippo is holding a helpful - and hilarious - secret. Can she use it to confront the bully and win the contest?

From The Daily Show comedian Bassem Youssef and author Catherine Daly comes a humorous and heartfelt story about prejudice, friendship, empathy, and courage.
