Review:
This book is a letter to our beloved Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.s. The book itself IS the letter and it written in rhyming text.

There is so much thought that has gone in the process of making this book and the details of the intended presentation to portray the letter as authentically written by a child.

The book poses curious questions and encourages the imagination of a Muslim children everywhere. The text is relatable, easy and written in rhyme. Aside from the prophet’s s.a.w.s. physical features described in the text, the letter touches up on a few sunnahs foods, sunnah actions and Isra wal Miraj journey. I would consider this as more of an advanced picture book as it is a little on the longer side text-wise.

I would have wanted to see Islamic  resources listed since this fictional story also includes non-fiction information about the Prophet s.a.w.s..

This book would make a great addition to any Muslim bookshelf that would spark great discussions with your mini Muslims.

This is my cozy corner of the internet dedicated to Muslim Kid Literature.

I am on an endless search for faith-based books that captivate the hearts and minds of young Muslims. By offering detailed book reviews, parents, teachers, and librarians will have the opportunity to make informed decisions when investing in their child’s bookshelf.
