Relatable, funny, and heart-wrenchingly honest, Saving Sunshine is the poignant story of Muslim American siblings learning how to build each other up in a world that is too often unkind.
It's already hard enough just being a kid, without being teased for having a funny sounding name or wearing a hijab.
It's even harder when you're constantly fighting your sibling - and Zara and Zeeshan really can't stand each other. During a family trip to Florida, when the bickering, shoving, and insults reach new heights of chaos, their parents sentence them to the worst possible fate - each other’s company! But when the twins find an ailing turtle, it presents a rare opportunity for teamwork - if the two can put their differences aside at last.
