George Washington and 10 year old Alnoor Kassim, meet accidentally on Mount Rushmore at 5.30 a. m. on the Fourth of July. You can imagine how far apart they are from each other at such an hour, on this lonely spot on the planet. And you will be surprised to see how much they have in common. The two revive each other's spirits, amuse and inspire each other, share the wonder of nature and personal secrets and laugh with love. This story is filled with the tender spirit of American Democracy and with the gentle strength of the Ismaili-Muslim soul.
