It's a basic overview of Islam and why stereotypes and myths have developed. There are chapters on politics, Europe, women, the faith, life of Mohammed, and jihad / terrorism. A good little book to read to avoid Islamophobia.
Starting this YA book on Islam that I found (and I have 2 others I should read). It is Muslim Heritage Month here in July. Hope those of you in the U S have a good holiday today!
If you enjoy stories about stories, then this book is for you.
“But if you think Anansi learned his lesson, you‘re mistaken. Because he is still playing tricks to this very day.”
I love this story line for a lesson on being kind to others and not taking what is not yours. It is a lesson on trust and friendship as well
This is a very neat and different kind of folktale than the ones that I have read before. It was all about what goes around comes around. I enjoyed the images and the story line of the book. In the end the spider got what he had coming to him because he had been deceiving all his friends for so long!
