Abstract	To contribute to social studies' and history teachers' bank of resources, the book list presented in this article was compiled by the Education Outreach Program (EOP) of the National Arab American Women Association (NAAWA). These books provide an alternative voice and a more colorful picture of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, with the narratives ranging from simple stories to more complex ones. This list of books provides a good collection of high quality, unbiased, and non-stereotypical portrayals of Arabs. It is also a collection that brings the native voices of the MENA region to elementary readers. In an environment where the voices of indigenous populations are too-often silenced, this collection adds to the messages of justice, peace, and equity towards Arabs, Muslims, and other marginalized groups in the United States and beyond.
