The Stories of Sara and Sivan tell the story of a sister and brother who traveled from Iran with their parents and now reside on the slopes of the Alps. Everything in the Alpine region feels new and unfamiliar to them. Yet, they make new friends, enjoy joyful days filled with celebrations and excitement, learn about various cultures, and introduce children from other lands to Iranian culture. Though they are far from their homeland, they keep their roots alive.
Children must be at the heart of celebrations and traditions, experiencing each event’s meaning in ways they understand and enjoy. Join Sara and Sivan alongside your children to experience Iranian culture and traditions anew.
This collection includes two Yalda-themed stories designed to help children experience togetherness, warmth, light, and love with each other and with you—the essence of Yalda night.
