Neither the school play's Shakespearean English nor his parents' Farsi seems up to the task, and it's only when Omid delves into the rhymes and rhythms of rap music that he starts to find his voice. But even as he does so, an act of terrorism transforms familiar accents into new threats. Then a family member disappears, and it seems everyone but Omid knows why. When words fail altogether and violence takes their place, what will Omid do next? 521 1 $a Ages 13 up. $b Allida. 521 2 $a Grades 10-12. $b Allida. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Iranian Americans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Rap (Music) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Novels in verse. $2 lcgft 941 $a 17 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20240514011608.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509012408.0 952 $l SJPB094 $d 20240420010616.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314030041.0 952 $l FMPC224 $d 20240222010354.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20240206011247.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240127012648.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20240126010404.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240125011557.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20240111011221.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240106010640.0 952 $l FGPD194 $d 20231219010916.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20231206014818.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20231102013507.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025015543.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20231005010532.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20231003013523.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5759383661B211EE96A426B62DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
