Read the excerpts from Does My Head Look Big in This? and Persepolis. Excerpt from Does My Head Look Big in This?:

My best friends, Leila Okulgen and Yasmeen Khan moved on to a public high school close to Coburg, where they live. I begged my parents to let me go with them but Mom and Dad insisted that I go to a private school. I tried everything. At first, I sucked up to them big time, making them coffee after dinner, offering to set the table before Mom had a chance to ask me, letting them watch PBS documentaries when I wanted to watch Big Brother. That didn’t work. So I turned political, ranting about them perpetuating the snobby bourgeoisie power trip of our educational system which forges aristocratic divisions between social classes (I got that from a PBS documentary). Talk about having no compassion or social conscience. They just laughed at me and gave me a pile of literature about the school.

Excerpt from Persepolis:

A page titled The Letter from the graphic novel Persepolis.
