Requests:  0 Summary:  "I Was Their American Dream is at once a coming-of-age story and a reminder of the thousands of immigrants who come to America in search for a better life for themselves and their children. The daughter of parents with unfulfilled dreams themselves, Malaka navigated her childhood chasing her parents' ideals, learning to code-switch between her family's Filipino and Egyptian customs, adapting to white culture to fit in, crushing on skater boys, and trying to understand the tension between holding onto cultural values and trying to be an all-American kid. Malaka Gharib's triumphant graphic memoir brings to life her teenage antics and illuminates earnest questions about identity and culture, while providing thoughtful insight into the lives of modern immigrants and the generation of millennial children they raised. Malaka's story is a heartfelt tribute to the American immigrants who have invested their future in the promise of the American dream."--Amazon.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Biography B Gharib Gh Graphic Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 973.08691 Gharib Gh Graphic Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Biography B Gharib Gh Women's History Display/BIOGRAPHY Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Biography B Gharib Gh Graphic format Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.08691 Gharib Gh [AGN] Checked out 06/03/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.08691 Gharib Gh   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Biography B Gharib Gh Graphic Novel Checked In   Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Biography A GN B Gharib Gh   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Biography B Gharib Gh   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.08691 Gh GrNov Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
