This month, the Library’s outdoor Darbey’s StoryWalk® features the book, “The Proudest Blue: A Story of Hijab and Family,” by Ibtihaj Muhammad with S. K. Ali, illustrated by Hatem Aly. It was selected for August because it’s a “first day of school” story, and because the main author is the first Muslim American woman in hijab to ever compete in the Olympic Games, and the first female Muslim American to medal. The book looks at finding inner strength and pride when facing bullies at school.
Darbey’s StoryWalk® enables visitors to walk along a designated path behind the Library while reading pages of a complete children’s book posted at 16 different stations.
