A story from the editor
We were reading a Caldecott winning book telling the tale of Noah's Ark. There was an illustration of Noah, his wife, sons and his sons wives all gathering grain berries and fruit in large woven baskets. On this page Macynn asked me “Mom, what’s that?” I said “What’s what? I don’t understand what are asking about? She pointed to the women’s dresses. And again said “That, what is that?” I told her it’s a dress, called an abayah, it is what many women wore a long time ago and some still wear it today in certain parts of the World. She cocked her head and said “Oh, I thought they were all wearing Suggies.”
I cracked up laughing and then started thinking seriously about how much TV this child is being exposed to!!!
