Praise for The Proudest Blue:New York Times Book Review
"Inspiring... The lovely, playful illustrations by Aly capture the spirit of imagination and sisterly solidarity in the face of bullying." -
* "Memorable and inspiring... Triumphant and true."Kirkus Reviews, starred review
-
* "A lovely blend of emotional lyricism and closely observed everyday life."Publishers Weekly, starred review

* "Aly's ink-wash-and-pencil illustrations settle and soar along with the language.... This story, as both window and mirror, inevitably educates, but more important, it encourages pride in and respect for hijab through a tale of two sisters, their bond strengthened by faith."Booklist, starred review
-
* "This excellent story about identity, visibility, and confidence, touches on rites of passage, bonds between sisters, and bullying and is unapologetic in tackling misconceptions and demanding equality."School Library Journal, starred review
