Yaffa and Fatima, Shalom, Salaam by Muslim author Fawzia Gilani-Williams takes an old Jewish folktale and turns it into a story of cross-cultural friendship. I spoke to Fawzia by Skype at her home in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.
Here are a few of the websites and books Fawzia mentioned during our conversation:
- DiscoverIslam.com
- 1001inventions.com
- Find some of Fawzia's own stories at IslamicTimelessTales.com
- What Islam Is All About by Yahiya Emerick
- The Complete Idiot's Guide to Islam by Yahiya Emerick
- Islam: Its Meaning and Message by Khurshid Ahmad
FYI: This is the last episode of the season. The Book of Life will be on summer hiatus until August.
