Description


Moving across the world was Salma’s first big adventure. Now you can join her on even more adventures in her new home—from cooking Syrian food, to becoming a big sister, and more!

Book Three: Salma Joins the Team

Salma dreams of becoming a champion swimmer like her hero, Olympian Yusra Mardini. So when she signs up for her school’s swim club, it feels like her dreams could come true . . . until mean comments from older girls at the pool and women at her mosque spark body image and self-esteem issues. But with the help of her close friends and family—the team that always has her back—Salma is ready to claim her place in the pool.

About the Series: Charming, creative Salma takes on big feelings with even bigger ideas as she navigates life in a new country, Syrian identity, family changes, and new friendships in this engaging and heartfelt early chapter book series.

Over 17 awards for Salma the Syrian Chef!
