Carman gives Lailah an idea about how to communicate what she is doing and why.Pairing an engaging and heartwarming tale with appealing illustrations, Lailah's Lunchbox: A Ramadan Story is the first book I have read from author Reem Faruqi, who seems to have based her story at least partially on her own life experiences, moving from the United Arab Emirates to the United States as a young person. Then a visit to the school library, and a chat with kindly librarian Mrs. When her mother gives her a note for her teacher, explaining about her fast, Lailah feels too awkward to hand it in, and finds herself struggling to explain to her classmates why she isn't eating lunch with them.
Lailah is excited to be allowed to fast for the month of Ramadan, but misses her friends back in Abu Dhabi, where she lived before her family moved to Peachtree City, Georgia.
