Når elevene velger et favoritt sitat eller scene fra boken, kan de uttrykke hvilke deler av historien som har resonert med dem på et personlig nivå. På denne måten lager studentene en tekst-til-selv-forbindelse som demonstrerer deres forståelse av karakterene og deres utvikling eller temaene i romanen. Studentene kan dele sine storyboards etterpå og ha en kort diskusjon om hva sitatene betyr for dem.

Jude begins wearing her hijab after her first period. It is a time she has been anxiously waiting for and she is very excited about this special rite of passage. Her parents and Layla's parents treat it as the momentous occasion that it is. Her teacher Mrs. Ravenswood also makes her feel welcome and accepted. However, Jude feels that no matter how much she explains to Aunt Michelle that it is her choice and she is happy about it, Aunt Michelle is still skeptical. In a heart-felt moment in the story, author Jasmine Warga conveys Jude's feelings of pride in wearing her hijab and her wish to dispel the misunderstandings surrounding the Muslim custom in a beautiful and moving way.
