Summary:
"Eleven-year-old Zomorod, originally from
Iran
, tells her story of growing up Iranian in Southern California during the Iranian Revolution and
hostage
crisis
of the late 1970s"--From publisher.
"Zomorod (Cindy) Yousefzadeh is the new kid on the block . . . for the fourth time. California’s Newport Beach is her family’s latest perch, and she’s determined to shuck her brainy loner persona and start afresh with a new Brady Bunch name—Cindy. It’s the late 1970s, and fitting in becomes more difficult as
Iran
makes U.S. headlines with protests, revolution, and finally the taking of American hostages. Even puka shell necklaces, pool parties, and flying fish can't distract Cindy from the anti-Iran sentiments that creep way too close to home..."--From publisher.
