It was stated in the excerpt:
Nadia has a passion for entertaining information. You name each piece of historical information, enjoy it, memorize it, and share it with others.
Do you want information regarding it? We have many:
• Nadia loves collecting bobblehead dolls, and currently has seventy-seven dolls.
• Nadia immigrated from Egypt to America when she was six years old.
• The hippopotamus necklace that she hangs around her neck looks like it is from the days of the Pharaohs…
In fact, it’s actually from ancient Egypt!
• Nadia will win a competition to design a new display corner at the National Museum.
(Perhaps the last point is not yet known to us, but Nadia is working to make it a reality.)
Things were going well until the day a new student joined her class and started teasing her and making fun of her Egyptian roots. The result is complete confusion…
What made matters worse was that her necklace began to shine! Then Nadia discovers that behind the hippopotamus hanging around her neck is a Pharaonic secret, “useful” and wondrous, that may turn her life into an enchanting, magical adventure!
This is a funny story coming from the heart, brought to light in collaboration between comedian and satirical host of the Daily Show, Bassem Youssef, and writer Catherine R. Dali. It is the story of Nadia, who lives an enchanting adventure whose events revolve around different and varied themes, such as friendship, empathy, prejudices, and courage, in a unique comic form.
