Gharib's wisdom about the power and limits of racial identity is evident in the way she draws."-NPRWINNER OF THE ARAB AMERICAN BOOK AWARD • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR • The New York Public Library • Kirkus ReviewsI Was Their American Dream is at once a coming-of-age story and a reminder of the thousands of immigrants who come to America in search for a better life for themselves and their children.

Malaka's story is a heartfelt tribute to the American immigrants who have invested their future in the promise of the American dream.Praise for I Was Their American Dream "In this time when immigration is such a hot topic, Malaka Gharib puts an engaging human face on the issue. . . .

The question of 'What are you?' has never been answered with so much charm."-Marissa Moss, New York Journal of Books"Forthright and funny, Gharib fiercely claims her own American dream."-Booklist"Thoughtful and relatable, this touching account should be shared across generations."- Library Journal"This charming graphic memoir riffs on the joys and challenges of developing a unique ethnic identity."- Publishers Weekly
