Once Upon an Eid: Stories of Hope and Joy by 15 Muslim Voices
S. K. Ali, Aisha Saeed
This collection presents slice-of-life stories about children, young teens, and families from varied backgrounds and places. Set during Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha, the stories explore experiences such as being new at school, wanting traditions to remain unchanged, and feeling like an outsider in a bicultural extended family. Muslim faith is central to the characters’ identities, alongside depictions of food, friendship, family relationships, hope, and generosity.
