Once upon an Eid : stories of hope and joy by 15 Muslim voices / edited by S.K. Ali and Aisha Saeed ; illustrated by Sara Alfageeh.

Saeed, Aisha, (editor.). Ali, S. K., (editor.). Alfageeh, Sara, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"a collection of short stories that showcases the most brilliant Muslim voices writing today, all about the most joyful holiday of the year: Eid! Eid: The short, single-syllable word conjures up a variety of feelings and memories for Muslims. Maybe it's waking up to the sound of frying samosas and simmering pistachio kheer, maybe it's the pleasure of putting on a new outfit for Eid prayers, or maybe it's the gift giving and holiday parties to come that day. Whatever it may be, for those who cherish this day of celebration, the emotional responses may be summed up in another short and sweet word: joy. The anthology will also include a poem, graphic-novel chapter, and spot illustrations"-- Provided by publisher.
