OUR FAVORITE DAY OF THE YEAR

Narrator Almarie Guerra's warm voice welcomes young listeners to a comforting story of friendships and the sharing of family traditions. On Musa's first day of kindergarten, his kind teacher, Ms. Gupta, promises the class that they will all become friends. Sweet-voiced Musa is worried, but Ms. Gupta provides a fun topic to discuss with his new classmates--what is everyone's favorite day? Throughout the year, the students delight in sharing their favorite days, along with the foods and decorations they love best. Musa proudly explains his family's traditions for Eid al-Fitr, while listeners hear his friends' enthusiasm as they share their love of Rosh Hashanah, Las Posadas, and Pi Day. The children develop treasured friendships as they share an important part of themselves with each other. E.E.C. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2021]
