About the Book :
She’s short, she’s spunky, she’s just a regular girl.
Sameera—Sparrow to her friends—is used to feeling invisible. But all that is about to change. As her father’s presidential campaign heats up, Sameera trades in her summer vacation for a crash course in becoming a celebrity. Step 1: Fabulous Makeover, of course!
As it turns out, the makeover is amazing. But some of the campaign staff aren’t content with a trendy haircut, stilettos and designer outfits. They’ve decided to package Pakistan-born, plain-speaking Sameera as ‘Sammy’ Righton—a giggly, carefree, all-American girl. No more wearing comfy jeans and sneakers, dancing the bhangra or blogging from the heart—in other words, Sameera must forget about being herself.
What they don’t know is that Sameera has a mind of her own. And plenty to say. Not to mention a gutsy, straight-talking blog that could go live to millions…
