Review:

What an amazing concept that we don’t usually see covered in books. This is such a fun and engaging boardbook. I absolutely love the high energy that Iman has! His keenness and willingness to be a good Muslim and help his parents prep for guests is just a joyful Muslim story. Mama, I just love her in the illustrations because I could really relate to her overwhelming role. The story is filled with sunnahs that are put into action by the little protagonist. That’s why I love that Islam is at the center of it all but without being preachy or monotonous. I just love surprises like this one. It is a fun filled book that will have your little ones giggling at Iman’s helpful antics. Get this book!
