This New York Times bestselling multi-author series is like American Girl with magic.
	In this installment, written by acclaimed authors Sarah Mlynowski and Hena Khan, the magic, wish-granting bracelet lands with a girl in Washington, D.C., who ends up being put in charge of... well, everything!
	
	Maya Amir of Washington, D.C. is having a bad day. Her family visiting from out of town have taken over her room, and worst of all, an annoying classmate has taken over the Environmental Club but doesn't seem to care about the environment the way Maya does.
	Then Maya receives a mysterious, magic bracelet in the mail from Lucy, a girl in Fort Worth, Texas, who had the bracelet last time. The bracelet grants wishes and Maya is having a hard time deciding what to wish for. Until she accidentally wishes to be in charge during a meeting of the Environmental Club. Suddenly, Maya is the head of the club!
	At first, Maya is thrilled by her newfound authority. That is, until everyone starts asking for her help! Her teacher leaves the classroom to her for a day and then the principal of her entire school puts Maya in charge. One day, the President of the United States shows up with a very important request: Maya needs to step in as Commander-in-Chief! How can she say no?
	Maya does her best but soon, she's overwhelmed by her newfound responsibilities, and she's terrified she's going to let everyone down. With the support of her new long-distance friends, Addie, Becca, and Lucy, and some help from her family, can Maya untangle the bracelet's magic, all while learning what it means to be a real leader?

Amina has never been comfortable in the spotlight. She is happy just hanging out with her best friend, Soojin. Except now that she's in middle school everything feels different. Soojin is suddenly hanging out with Emily, one of the "cool" girls in the class, and even talking about changing her name to something more "American." Does Amina need to start changing too?

"A groundbreaking new book that also tries to span the cultural chasm for a new generation." -The New Yorker



George helps Kareem with his first fast and joins in the evening celebration of tasting treats and enjoying a special meal. Then George helps make gift baskets to donate to the needy, and watches for the crescent moon with the man in the yellow hat. Finally, George joins in the Eid festivities to mark the end of his very first Ramadan.



This playful book makes a great holiday gift for all fans of Curious George-those who celebrate Ramadan, and those who are learning about it for the first time.



"To help overcome Islamophobia and foster mutual respect, acceptance and understanding, teachers, parents, community leaders and librarians can use books like these to educate children about Muslims while enhancing religious literacy." -The Huffington Post 







"I hope [this book] makes it into the hands of Muslim children who need it and any child curious about Ramadan and Islam. Parents, this is how we teach love." -Read It Real Good]]></description><link>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C16318399</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C16318399</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rey, H.
