Jul 10, 2018 · original
With summer vacation fully underway hanging out with my three boys and squeezing in writing time has been keeping me quite busy but I’m happy to have some time now to share some amazing updates for AMAL UNBOUND. Thank you so much for supporting this book, for buying it and recommending it to your local libraries and reviewing it. It means so much to me. Without further ado: ** Thrilled to share that AMAL UNBOUND now has four starred reviews . The latest one is from School Library Journal which stated in part: Saeed’s middle grade debut shares an empowering message about the importance of family, literacy, and cultural ties. The rich storytelling, nuanced characterization of an all-Pakistani cast, complex and layered look at the socioeconomics of the region, and richly described setting make this ultimately hopeful contemporary tale a good alternative to Gloria Whelan’s Homeless Bird and - AMAL UNBOUND has been selected as a Global Read Aloud for 2018!

Completely honored and humbled to share that AMAL UNBOUND was selected a Global Read Aloud for 2018.

AMAL UNBOUND got it’s first trade review and it’s a starred review from Publisher’s Weekly! A few excerpts: Saeed ( Written in the Stars ) infuses this true-to-life story of unjust power dynamics in a poor Pakistani village with a palpable sense of dread regarding the fate of the inquisitive, industrious, poetry-loving titular character. And: Saeed’s eloquent, suspenseful, eye-opening tale offers a window into the contemporary practice of indentured servitude and makes a compelling case for the power of girls’ education to transform systemic injustice.
