Salam, my dear friends,
I hope you're all well.
If you've time to listen
I've something to tell
About the first mosque,
A beautiful sight,
Which we face when we pray,
Where the nur shines bright
Discover the joys of 'Umrah when a brother and sister travel with their parents to the city of Mecca and perform this sacred ritual for the very first time. Includes a poster and paper dolls to enact performing 'Umrah!
"The well-executed verse and friendly, if not entirely skillful cartoons provide a positive, child's-eye-view perspective on the journey. A foldout map and cutout paper dolls add an additional interactive dimension, allowing children to walk the dolls through the same steps that the family undertakes through Umrah" Publishers weekly
