Description
Maliks brother is autistic. They have great times together but sometimes they clash.
When Malik fights with Badr over the TV, and then Mama doesnt let him buy the train set he desperately wants, Malik starts to feel that life with Badr gets too hard.
But Badr finds something to cheer Malik up, a train made with something he never expected.
Sometimes fun just needs a bit of imagination!
Author Bio
Sarah Musa grew up in rural New Mexico on a small farm with chickens, goats, cats, and rabbits. With nine siblings she always had someone to play with or someone to talk to.
Growing up as a Muslim in the United States was challenging. She struggled with feeling that she wasnt good enough or that she didnt belong. Her safe-haven was her family and often a good book. Knowing that many Muslim children struggle as she did it inspired her to write for them. She hopes that her writing assures them that they are normal.
