About the Book

It's market day for Samira and her grandma! The bazaar is crowded, but this sweet pair knows how to stick together in this silly picture book set in Iran.

Mama Shamsi is off to the market, and today, Samira gets to go with her! Samira loves spending time with her grandmother, and she especially loves her chador, which Mama Shamsi wraps around herself every time they leave the house. As the pair get closer and closer to the market, Samira is worried about getting lost in the crowded streets of Tehran, until she has an idea: She can hide under her grandmother's chador. But when Mama Shamsi says no--if Samira hides under there, the pair of them will look like a strange animal! In imaginary spreads, Samira and Mama Shamsi turn into a donkey, a giraffe, a kangaroo, a turtle--hiding isn't working at all. But maybe there's some other way for Samira to stay safe with her grandma in the crowded market.
About the Author: Mojdeh Hassani is a New York-based teacher with more than theirty-five years of experience. She holds two master's degrees from Teachers College, Columbia University in the fields of developmental psychology and early childhood special education. She has always felt that if you know a person you can't hate them, and this is what drives her to share stories from her homeland, Iran. Mojdeh's favorite people in the world are her family and students, and she loves spending time cuddling with her dog, Valentine.

Samira Iravani is a New York native, NYU graduate, and book cover designer. She has been a lover of the written word since she was as little as the Samira in this book, especially tales from Iran, her parents' homeland. When she's not designing or weaving her own tales, she also loves cuddling Valentine (and will not share his attentions with her mom, Mojdeh).
