Chapter 4
Campaign Week
Sadiq opened the door to his house and took off his shoes.
âSalaam, Baba!â he called out to his dad.
âHere comes the candidate!â said Baba.
âHow is it going, qalbi?â asked Hooyo.
âI donât know, Hooyo,â said Sadiq as he hugged his mom. âManny is mad at me. I have to give a speech. Itâs A LOT.â
âHelp me set the table,â said Aliya. She handed Sadiq a stack of plates. âYou can tell us about it.â
âI have to use my speech to get votes,â said Sadiq. âI can talk about my ideas and why theyâre the best.â
âDoes everyone have to give a speech?â asked Nuurali.
âIf you want to get votes, yes,â replied Sadiq. âMs. Battersby says itâs important. You can change peopleâs minds.â
âI think youâll do great,â said Nuurali. âYou are very convincing. We always end up watching your pick for movie night!â
Sadiq smiled. âI have good suggestions!â
âI can help you practice your speech,â offered Aliya.
âAnd Iâll help you with your posters,â said Nuurali. âIâve got some construction paper. And Aliya has some new markers too.â
