Do you ever play dress-up? Maybe you like wearing your parent's clothes and pretending you are all grown up. The little girl in this book likes playing dress up but she likes wearing her mother's khimar. A khimar is a head scarf and is also called a hijab. The women in the mosque wear them and it makes her feel good to wear her mother's khimar. Especially the yellow one. She imagines all sorts of things when she is wearing the yellow khimar. Come along and see.
