The Sandwich Swap by Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah



The Sandwich Swap
by Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah

Summary: Best friends Lily and Salma disagree over their preferred foods, but after trading sandwiches to see how they taste, the girls change their minds. And learn a lesson about tolerance.

This is a beautiful and touching story. On a basic level, it could be used to discuss “you never know until you try something.” On a deeper level, this book is fantastic to discuss not only tolerance, but acceptance and celebration of our differences. After this book, one may want to research this queen of Jordan. Her life story is interesting.

Interest Level: ages 2-4, grades k-3
