Deep in the Sarah by Kelly Cunnane & Hoda Hadadi

Lalla lives in Mauritania, West Africa, and desperately wants to be old enough to wear a malafa, the beautiful, colorful cloth that her mother, sister, and other female relatives wear to cover their clothing and heads when they pray and when they go out in public. This realistic cultural picture book would be a valued addition to many elementary classrooms because it can be used as an interesting book to read and as a book that would help students begin to learn about cultures other than their own.
