Room for Everyone

Rhythmic counting combined with the vivid illustrations in this book are a feast for the senses! This book will have children wiggling and giggling right alongside Musa, earning our Gold Star, as he learns the beauty of the Islamic tradition of taking care of elders, being considerate toward others, and making room for everyone no matter the seeming limitations. When there is room in our heart, there is room in our home (or bus!). The Author’s note found in the backmatter enriches the book with a glimpse into the lives of people in Zanzibar, an island in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Tanzania.
