Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Two neighbors--one Jewish, one Muslim--have always been best friends. When they both fall on hard times, can they find a way to help each other? In Fawzia Gilani's retelling of this folktale--which has both Jewish and Arab origins--differences are not always causes for conflict and friendship can overcome any obstacle.
"Inspired by a tale that is said to have both Jewish and Arab origins"--Author's note.
Ages 4-9.
AD530L Lexile.
"Yaffa and Fatima live on neighboring date farms. When very little rain leads to a poor harvest, both women go to extra measures to make sure that their neighbor doesn't go hungry"-- Provided by publisher.
