Many windows : six kids, five faiths, one community

Khan, Rukhsana 1962- (Author). Carbone, Elisa Lynn. (Added Author). Krishnaswami, Uma, 1956- (Added Author).

Summary: "A collection of seven stories about six children who are in the same class at school, two white boys, a black girl, a Chinese girl, an Indian girl, and a Pakistani boy. They are not friends, but they all come together in one community at the end of the stories. Each story in the collection centers on a different celebration within the faith of that child, and in the appendix at the back of the book, each of the celebrations is explained in more depth, as it is celebrated within that faith community: Bhuddism, Islam, Christianity, Judaism and Hinduism. Each story represents a window into the life of the child, or, from a different point of view, the child's windowlooking out to the world." --From the publisher.
