Summary
The House Without Lights features music and special effects. Listen along and enjoy the fun!
In this heartwarming holiday audiobook, House misses being decorated for the winter holidays—but is delighted to be lit up for Eid instead.
After seeing all of its neighbors' twinkling lights for the winter holidays, House hopes to shine too. When Huda and her family move in, House thinks its time to sparkle has finally come.
But, Diwali, Hanukkah, and Christmas come and go without a shimmer. Quickly, House learns that every family celebrates joy and togetherness in their own way, no matter the season. And a few months later House will see that this new family has its own holiday to shine for.
This audiobook is sure to be a holiday classic, complete with back matter about the holidays mentioned, including the one House lights up for: Eid.
A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.
Critic reviews
"Making clear that Muslim celebrations are just as festive as holidays such as Christmas or Hanukkah, Faruqi delivers a refreshing twist on Eid tales. Brimming with details, Alam’s welcoming illustrations capture the closeness of this family. . . . Simply charming."—Kirkus
