Epically cute hijab book.


This is the most epic-cute little book on hijab! It details all the things Muslim girls can do wearing hijab, like playing at the park or reading the Qur'an or praying or eating or shopping with parents or riding a bus. I love it. Price was $10.95, but we somehow ended up with a copy at my friend's book store, so I got it for $5.

It's from England, and despite what Amazon says, it is in print. You can buy different books in the series ("I Can Say Bismillah Anywhere", "I Can Eat Anything Anywhere", etc) on some Islamic store websites. Me, regardless of whether or not I eventually become Muslim, if I should lose my mind and have kids, will teach my daughter that hijab is a great, wonderful, beautiful and glorious thing. : D

Also, got this article link from new friend LK. : )

  1. I've seen this book before online. So cute! They have created some great resources for muslim girls and women in the UK. I would totally get this for my kid as well even if I am never a muslim. It is always good to teach your kids about other people's cultures and religions.

  2. Isn't it, though?

    And anyway, it's never too early to teach your kids not just tolerance, but to embrace the differences that make people so interesting.
