1: Excellent peek into Arab/Islamic culture
We are reading this book at part of Sonlight's Core 5, and I, the 47-year-old mother am enjoying it even more than my 12 and 14yo boys. It is an excellent peek into society, culture, religion and daily life of Arabs with a small history of Islam to boot. Very readable and not at all dry. We generally read about 1-4 pages a night and it is the perfect companion for "Shadow Spinner".

2: charming introduction to Arab history
This book with delightful illustrations and clear simple prose is an excellent brief introduction to the medieval Near or Middle East--and not just for children.

Arabs in the Golden Age is a must for any elementary school teacher who covers Medieval Times in their social science curriculum. It gives a view into Islamic Medieval times and the height of the Islamic cultural empire. It has great illustrations and appropriate reading level for grades 3-6. Please buy this book for your teacher-librarian and the students at your school!
