for christmas: wonderful adaptation of dickens classic featuring mice (of course!) by british writer toby forward and illustrated by ruth brown.for eid (an ever moving muslin holiday) which just happened to have occurred earlier this month is a new book (2007) by ohio based physician-author asma mobin-uddin and illustrated by laura jacobsen. a beautiful story that transcends dogma and addresses the universal joy found by the simple act of giving to others.
a thanksgiving time I ran across this delightful book at the library's thanksgiving display in the children's section. it is a story of ann and ed who after burning their own thanksgiving dinner wander next door to the new world cafe thinking the restaurant is open for business as usual they soon find themselves in the midst of a very unique private holiday celebration. written and illustrated in 2003 by debby atwell the thanksgiving door tells about unexpected gifts that can come when cultures come together and what can happen when the hearts and doors are opened "big and wide."
