I loved seeing the different cultural activities in the illustrations. This is a cute introduction to Arabic culture. The Author takes the reader through a monthly journey of their life as an Arab. You learn about their activities, clothes, food, and interactions. At the end of the book is a glossary of terms for the reader. I wish there were a pronunciation guide. The illustration is cute, with lots of bright colors that appeal to the eyes. I like that this book is also informational since you are learning about another culture. no reviews | add a review

"Yallah! From January to December, join some busy kids as they partake in traditions old and new. There's so much to do, whether it's learning to write Arabic or looking at hijab fashion sites while planning costumes for a local comic convention. With details as vivid as the scent of jasmine and honeysuckle perfume (made to remind Mom of Morocco), children bond with friends, honor tradition, and spend loving time with family. Accompanied by buoyant and charming illustrations, this portrait of Arab life and childhood zeal is sure to bring joy all year round. Back matter includes an extensive glossary and notes to enrich the experience for readers of any culture."-- No library descriptions found. |
