Warga writes young adult and middle grade novels. Other Words for Home, a 2020 Newbery Honor Book, follows a Syrian girl who moves to Cincinnati, Ohio and explores questions of belonging. Her latest novel, A Rover’s Story, follows a Mars rover who is tested in ways that go beyond space exploration and finds the determination, courage, and resilience to succeed and survive. She is the author of young adult books My Heart and Other Black Holes and Here We Are Now, which have been translated into over twenty different languages. Jasmine currently teaches in the MFA program at Vermont College of Fine Arts.
