First Reading of “Rabbi the Rabbit!”

I had a great time reading my award-winning children’s fiction short story “Rabbi the Rabbit” at the Islamic Center of Claremont’s Community School! The kids were attentive and asked intelligent questions, like ‘who is the illustrator?’ I was nervous that the kids wouldn’t sit through the story, which is about a heavy topic, refugee children. But thankfully they listened. I bribed them with stickers for answering questions about the book, so that helped.)

Also thank you to those who bought a copy! I only had a couple to sell.

If you’d like to read “Rabbi the Rabbit,” please buy a copy of the anthology OUT OF MANY, ONE: CELEBRATING DIVERSITY on Amazon.

Thank you!
