Hi Crystal, 

Thanks so much for weighing in. 

It's been my pleasure! 

Glad to know that teachers are sharing such books even though they are concerned with push back. 

All the best,

Rukhsana

Hi. Thank you so much for being part of this discussion Rukhsana. I have been very busy with the start of school so haven't participated like I wanted to. I know I have responded a bit past your window of time, but I didn't know if you got any responses to your question.

"When K.T. first approached me to join the discussion I couldn’t help but wonder if educators wouldn’t suffer some push back from some of the parents about the inclusion of Muslim literature in the classroom. Are any of you worried?"

I will admit that sometimes when I am sharing books like Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns that really focus in on religion, I wonder if I will hear from parents, but so far that hasn't happened. So my answer is that I do worry a bit, but that isn't affecting what books I am ordering or what I am sharing with students. It's just a little worry that bounces through my head.

Thanks again for King for a Day and sharing with us through the listserv.
