Thirty-three Quranic accounts are gathered here, each retold briefly enough to close a day without leaving a story half finished.
Short does not mean slight: the entries carry compassion, honesty, patience and reliance on Allah through the events themselves, and the full-colour illustration gives children a picture to hold on to. The collection is built for shared reading, with a parent and child working through one story at a time, though confident readers in the upper primary years manage it on their own.
A closer look:
• Thirty-three retellings selected across the breadth of the Quran
• Entry length judged for a single bedtime rather than a chapter
• Illustrated in full colour on every story spread
• Written for the seven to thirteen age range
A dependable read-aloud for Muslim families and a welcome gift for a young reader, stocked in English by Boipoka.
