PreS-Gr 1-Nine desert animals are introduced as they make their way to their nests and dens. The text is composed of repetitive sentences that vary only in verb choice: "Someone flies home. Someone darts home." Each creature is identified by name in a boxed caption. The informative artwork begs to be examined. In primarily soft greens and browns, the illustrations depict the animals in their habitats and provide details such as footprints. Deceptively simple, this book is a solid choice for introductory science lessons and beginning readers.-Anne Knickerbocker, Cedar Brook Elementary School, Houston, TX

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Rogers, Jacqueline (illustrator). In 2006 a dispute broke out regarding an initiative by the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles (backed by Israeli authorities) to construct a Museum of Tolerance (MoT) in West Jerusalem. The museum was to be built on a plot of land that in the past had been part of the historic Muslim Mamilla Cemetery, which since the 1980s has served as a municipal parking lot. Debate centred on whether construction of a museum dedicated to human dignity on Muslim cemeterial land was justified. The Northern Islamic Movement and a group of 70 academics and eight Israeli civil society organizations (including rabbis) opposed the project, but their petition to Israel's High Court of Justice failed. Yitzhak Reiter presents the public and legal dilemmas at the individual level (an act of insensitivity to the Muslim minority in Jerusalem); at the political level (the right of equal treatment by the state and the right to administer holy properties waqf] according to religious law and rulings of shari'a Islamic law] courts); and at the universal level (can conflict over a holy place be addressed objectively from the ideological/political positions that the place symbolizes, and is a secular civil court competent/appropriate to adjudicate a religious conflict). Research for this book integrates a multi-disciplinary approach involving history, identity politics, and conflict resolution. Sources include documents obtained from the Shari'a Court of Jerusalem and Israel's High Court of Justice, as well as Islamic law and Israeli civil law literature, reports of experts submitted to the courts, and personal participation of the author, including discussions with key players and informants. The Mamilla dispute reflects a microcosm of conflicts over religious and national symbols of cultural heritage as well as Jewish majorityArab minority tensions within Israel.
