SuitabookThe most pleasant festival of sacrifice

- Reading
- Read together and invite your child to notice who helps organise the event and who is included. Let them lead any discussion of the holidays or family values.
- Themes
- Celebrating Eid in a diverse community: Parents worry about their children learning their own values; neighbourhood mothers organise an Eid celebration and invite children from families in need and an orphanage. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- The parents’ concern about children learning their own values is part of the setup. Families may wish to discuss how the story presents that concern and the shared celebration.
