Hijab is the crown I wear every day.

Brown, like my teacher's hijab?
Pink, like my mother's hijab?
Help me decide

Her closet is full of hijabs in different styles, patterns, and of course, colors Her first book, From Somalia to Snow , explores how central Minnesota became home to Somalis. Hudda hopes this book brings joy to the girls who wear hijabs and brings light to all of the people they meet.
A young girl considers the women she knows and the various colors of the hijab they wear. Muslim women have many varied jobs and wear their hijab as they work. She wants to be like them. The hijab becomes a crowning touch for her--a representation of faith, identity, and fashion.
