Daniel and Ismail by Juan Pablo Iglesias

But the next day, they find each other in the park and get back to what really matters: having fun and playing the game they both love.ĭaniel and Ismail is a remarkable multilingual picture book that confronts the very adult conflicts that kids around the world face, and shows us that different cultures, religions, societies, and languages can all share the same page. That night, Daniel and Ismail have nightmares about what they have seen on the news and heard from adults about the other group. When they get home and discover their mistake, their parents are shocked and angry, asking the boys if they realize who wears those things. They get so absorbed in the fun that they lose track of time and mix up their gifts: Daniel picks up Ismail's keffiyeh and Ismail takes Daniel's tallit. Taking their gifts out for a spin, they meet by chance on a soccer field, and they soon begin to play together and show off the tricks they can do. They live in the same city and have the same birthday, and this year they get the same presents: a traditional scarf-for Daniel a tallit and for Ismail a keffiyeh-and a soccer ball.
