Lighthearted and fun!

This adorable chapter book is an absolutely wonderful uplifting and empowering story for young elementary kids.⠀

Aliyah is a young girl that moved from Freshtown to a town called Dumpton! (This was pretty funny) Sure enough, the town is an absolute dump, with trash and bad smells everywhere. Aliyah hates this and decides to change it. She makes a list of things to do, but nothing on the list works.

Just as she is discouraged, some advice from her parents inspires her to make t-shirts that include anti-litter slogans like “Littering Stinks”. Slowly, with the help of her school principal, this fashion trend catches on until everyone start wearing the shirts and the town is inspired to clean.⠀

The book is an easy read for young readers and is probably modeled similar to traditional young reader books. It is seven chapters, approximately 33 pages, with a big clear font, and occasional black/white pictures.⠀

I really liked how the book flowed, as well as the nice resolution.

I like the concept of teaching our kids about being clean and taking care of the Earth that Allah created.

This book is perfect for little Muslim readers and schools!

Great early chapter read!

This book was exactly what I expected. It is an early chapter book that tackles important topics: caring for the environment, resilience, hard work and never underestimate what your efforts can bring. All these big ideas are tied into one essential story in a wonderful way. I really loved that this project was led by a girl who wanted to see a positive change in her neighborhood rather than leaving this big problem for the adults to solve. In this book we also learn that most things have deeper roots than what we see on the surface. We can clean up a messy neighborhood, just to see it messy again shortly after. However, if this change happens in the mindset and attitude of the people great things can happen. I really love that about this story. The end of the book includes discussion questions. It is definitely, an important message.
