Assigned reading for MLIS 7421: Multicultural Youth Literature.
Do not let the less than striking cover of this one mislead you; this book is positively beautiful in both art and setting, and rich in culture as well. A little girl goes to spend time with her grandmother, and while visiting with her, is gifted prayer clothes and a prayer rug and taught how to do her five daily prayers. I just thought this was absolutely precious, and would recommend it for any child.
