SUMMARY:Other:Read and Look | The Proudest Blue: A Story of Hijab and Family
DESCRIPTION:The Kelsey’s “Read and Look” program is a great first trip to the museum—providing visitors with opportunities to explore past and present cultures and connect with others. This event is free and open to everyone\, but it is intended for children ages 4–8.\n\nThis month’s book is *The Proudest Blue: A Story of Hijab and Family*—a vividly illustrated tale about resilience and sibling love—written by Olympic medalist and social justice activist Ibtihaj Muhammad. Young Faizah\, excited for the first day of school with her new backpack and light-up shoes\, is especially thrilled because it’s her older sister Asiya’s first day of hijab. However\, not everyone views Asiya’s beautiful blue hijab with the same admiration. After overhearing negative comments from Asiya’s classmates\, Faizah learns to find strength and pride in her sister’s journey. Paired with artwork by illustrator Hatem Aly\, this story highlights the importance of embracing new experiences and celebrating one’s identity.\n\nThis event is free and open to all visitors. If you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event\, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.
