It's 1979, and thirteen-year-old Joseph Nissan can't help but notice that small-town Texas has something in common with Revolution-era Iran: an absence of fellow Jews. And in such a small town it seems obvious that a brown kid like him was bound to make friends with Latinos-which is a plus, since his new buds, the Ybarra twins, have his back. But when the Iran hostage crisis, two neighborhood bullies, and the local reverend's beautiful daughter put him in all sorts of danger, Joseph must find new ways to cope at home and at school. As he struggles to trust others and stay true to himself, a fiercely guarded family secret keeps his father at a distance, and even his piano teacher, Miss Eleanor-who is like a grandmother to him-can't always protect him. But Joseph is not alone, and with a little help from his friends he finds the courage to confront his fears and discovers he can inspire others to find their courage, too. Just a Hat is an authentically one-of-a-kind YA debut that fuses the humor of Firoozeh Dumas's Funny in Farsi with the poignancy of Daniel Nayeri's Everything Sad Is Untrue. "I dare you not to fall in love with Youssef, a young Persian Jew trying to find his place in a small Texas town filled with bigotry. Khubiar deftly weaves the tumultuous history of Iran into a poignant page-turner all too relevant today. Read this and weep and laugh and weep again." "Just a Hat is a powerful and important depiction of the hatred and discrimination of America's past and the hatred and discrimination we continue to see today. There is much to learn from history, and Shanah illuminates an area of Jewish life that we haven't seen in kid-lit-Iranian Jews and immigration to America. This book is a first, and it showcases the diversity of the Jewish people."
