Youth Lit authors Hena Khan and Sara Farizan talk about writing
young Pakistani and Iranian characters, and wonder why every single
book set in South Asia includes samosas. Plus, they give Ahmed some
writing advice and read from their own work. Hena shares an excerpt
from her forthcoming novel "Amina's Voice," and Sara reads from
"Tell Me Again How a Crush Should Feel".
