"A warm, comforting bedtime story that invites readers to peek under the roofs of a diverse group of kids, celebrating family and home.
A sprinkle of starlight and beams from the moon
whisper to families that bedtime is soon.
If you lifted up shingles or peeked in each home,
What might you find on your starry night roam?
Under one roof, a family gets ready for bedtime together, while under another, folks are thinking of someone who can’t be there. Some families sleep under unfamiliar roofs, on a faraway trip or taking shelter from a storm, while others are cozy at home or even camping out under the stars. This soothing, lyrical book wraps readers in a moonlit hug while showing how love transcends distance, and that we’re still all together under the same sky. For fans of An Invisible String or anyone looking for a calming, reassuring read, this gentle story is perfect for bedtimes everywhere. "
"An inspiring book that tells the story of Rashida Tlaib, one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress, and her family. Perfect for readers of books that celebrate trailblazing women and social activists as well as those looking for an introduction to civic engagement and how government works.
''Hey Adam, is the president Mom's boss now?''
When Yousif Tlaib asks about his mom's new job in Congress, his older brother, Adam, fills him in—with some help from Rashida Tlaib herself. As he tells his mom’s story, Adam reveals information about how elections and our government work, what it means to break barriers, what motivates their mama to work for justice for all, and how love and family have guided them through this historic time in our country.
From growing up in Detroit—the eldest of fourteen siblings and the first in her immigrant family to graduate from high school—through her journey into community activism and then local politics, to eventually becoming one of the first Muslim Congresswomen and an influential national figure, Rashida Tlaib's inspiring story shows kids that they, too, can do great things and make a difference.
