Descriere You're Out of Luck, Alina Butt - Ambreen Butt-hussain

\nTwelve-year-old Alina is actually looking forward to going back to school.\n \nFor once, she has some friends to sit beside on the first day. But when Alina walks into her classroom, someone is sitting in her spot and there are no seats left next to her friends. Grade seven is off to a rocky start! Then the teacher announces that the class will be going on a trip to Paris later in the fall. It's an expensive trip, but she's sure that with the right plan, she can convince her strict parents to let her go. What could go wrong?\n \nFor starters, her passport is expired so she can't go on the trip to Paris. When her new passport does arrive, her parents announce a trip back to Pakistan. At first Alina is miserable, but soon she begins to see that when it comes to the things that matter the most, she might not be so unlucky after all.\n \nThis is a sequel to the author's first novel, The Unlovable Alina Butt, which was a starred selection for CCBC Best Books for Kids & Teens.\n \nThe epub edition of this title is fully accessible.\n \nPraise for The Unlovable Alina Butt \n \nIn this charming, tightly plotted debut, Alina's witty, vulnerable narratorial voice guides readers through her intensely authentic personal evolution.--Kirkus Reviews\n \nThis charming, eye-opening book highlights not only the struggles of an immigrant girl, but the power that comes from seeing things through someone else's eyes.--School Library Journal (SLJ)\n
