"In Andal's House" by Gloria Whelan tells the story of an American girl named Klea who travels to Morocco with her father for work. There, she stays with a local family, the Benirs, in a lively household run by the strong-willed matriarch, Andal. As Klea navigates the cultural differences and begins to bond with the Benir family, she discovers the richness of their traditions and the challenges they face. This poignant tale explores themes of friendship, understanding, and the power of connection across cultures, ultimately highlighting the beauty of diversity and the importance of empathy.
