“Amplifies…themes of acceptance and sharing.” —Publishers Weekly

From Her Majesty Queen Raina Al Abdullah of Jordan and award-winning children’s book author Kelly DiPucchio comes an inspiring story about celebrating similarities across cultures.
Lily and Salma are best friends. They like doing all the same things, and they always eat lunch together. Lily eats peanut butter and Salma eats hummus—but what's that between friends? It turns out, a lot. Before they know it, a food fight breaks out. Can Lily and Salma put aside their differences? Or will a sandwich come between them?
This hopeful story highlights the positive impact of sharing our experiences with each other and valuing what makes us different. In a glorious three-page gatefold at the end of the book, Salma, Lily, and all their classmates come together in the true spirit of tolerance and acceptance.

I read it to the first graders in our school at the end of the school year and each group was enthralled by the story and readily identified with the characters.
As well as being used to discuss cultural differences, the story could also be used to discuss friendship or being open to new experiences and as an introduction to foods that are specific to different cultures.
A great book!
I like that it is written by a queen.
The simple text and lovely illustrations make it a joy to read.
I think many Early Childhood Education settings could make great use of this book as an initial discussion about similarities and differences. A great book to enhance of begin discussions about equality.
