The Story of a Muslim Girl Who Moved to a Western Country

"This book would be great for teachers to use with students when talking about inclusion, diversity, and acceptance." Amazon Reviewer

"I strongly believe that reading about those who are different from themselves is the best way to teach children to be tolerant of all such differences." Amazon Reviewer, UK

Maryam has moved to a foreign country with her family. But here, she won't be able to continue playing her favorite sports, like swimming. Unlike those back home, the swimming pools in this new country are mixed--males and females swim together. Maryam wonders how she can continue playing her favorite sports while maintaining her religious obligations.
