Book Overview
"This tale of sibling compassion and ingenuity provides enough story for enjoyment alone but would also work well as an introduction to another culture and religion" -- School Library Journal Chandra and Deena's family has a smoky oil lamp at home, which makes their baby brother cough. Then one day at the market, the sisters spot a man selling lamps that are powered by the sun instead of kerosene -- and would be healthier for their brother But how will they afford to buy one of the "magic" lamps?
