Once Upon an Eid gathers fifteen original stories, a poem, a graphic-novel chapter, and illustrations that celebrate the sights, tastes, and family rhythms of Eid. Contributors share moments of joy, memory, and community across varied voices and settings.

The collection balances everyday detail—food, prayers, new outfits, gift-giving—with deeper reflections on belonging and tradition. Short forms and diverse styles make it easy to read aloud at home or use in classroom discussions about ritual, culture, and celebration.

Edited by Aisha Saeed and S.K. Ali, the anthology features writers such as G. Willow Wilson, Hena Khan, and N. H. Senzai among others, offering a range of perspectives young readers will recognize and enjoy.
