The central conflict in this occurs when the middle sister eats most of the oldest sister's birthday party lollipop. The illustrations hilariously show the angry chase that ensues, culminating in the oldest sister throwing the lollipop under the couch in frustration. Then the middle sister fishes it out and eats the rest. Gross! Funny! Big Red Lollipop by Rukhsana Khan was inspired by her own childhood as a younger sister who desperately wanted to go with her sister to a birthday party even though she wasn't invited. It's told from Rubina, the oldest sister's point of view. She is invited to a birthday party, something her immigrant mother has never heard of and she tries to explain that only she is invited. Her mother though says she can only go if she can take her middle sister. The book teaches readers about diversity and the relationship between siblings. I think it’s important that students learn about multiculturalism because they are going to be in diverse classrooms. Students need to be aware of their surroundings. A lot of times, children say things without thinking about them first. This can lead to people’s feelings being hurt. They might not participate in classroom discussions because they don’t feel appreciated. Another big theme in this book is the relationship between siblings which I think a lot of students can relate to. Readers will learn about the importance of being patient and sharing with your siblings.

After reading the Big Red Lollipop, you will be able to teach your students the topic of cultural differences and traditions. This topic may be new to them as it is to Rubina and Sana's mother, Ami. Throughout the story, Ami does not understand why it is not normal for siblings to take each other to birthday parties let alone even know what a birthday party is. Through the eyes of Ami, students will be able to learn that not all cultures are alike and different cultures have different traditions and ways of celebrating. The book also helps us explore the concept of forgiveness through the relationship of sisters Rubina and Sana. After Sana is forced to take Maryam to a party, Rubina realizes that Sana will now feel the same way she felt. Embarrassment, anger, and awkwardness all rolled into one. Instead of letting Sana go through the grief of bringing Maryam, Rubina makes the right choice and convinces Ami to let Sana go alone. As a sign of thanks and in hopes of forgiveness, Sana gives Rubina a big green lollipop.
