A heartfelt story about being generous and caring for neighbours

Idrees dreams of being the fastest runner at school. There’s just one thing stopping him: his old, worn-out shoes. Luckily, his Mama promised him a new pair. Idrees can’t wait to try them out…until he finds out they aren’t new at all. They’re used! Idrees is worried about wearing the old shoes but soon learns the power of adding a new story to an old pair of shoes.

Ages 4+, 36 pages, softcover

Teaching Important Values

I love reading this book to my kids and my kids love this book too.

As a parent I'm always worried about whether I'm raising spoiled kids because they are definitely more privileged than I was growing up and we are blessed with so much. Alhamdullilah.

So I was really happy to purchase this book, to be able to remind my kids through the story that what's old can be new and even better than new! [And the next time we're at a thrift store, I can remind them of Idrees :-)]

The character of Idrees is realistic and speaks like any child would and the mother is very calm and kind. I love how Ruqaya's Bookshelf books teaches lessons in a really fun way, and without being didactic. I loved how Idrees was in a dilemma and we see real time how he makes a choice - to do the right thing. Looking out for our friends and neighbors is the only way to true success.

So grateful for all of the books at Ruqaya's Bookshelf! Alhamdullilah! May Allah make them successful.
