I love this history

Super relatable story with the best illustrations, interesting characters and a surprising ending. It's my favorite one to read.

My name is nusaiba and I adored it 🥰🥰🥰

My son truly loves all the books I have purchased from Ruqaya's Bookshelf. Wonderful selection of diverse books that are truly relatable for Muslim children.
What a wonderful book with a strong, Muslim female lead! Great for school-aged children and useful when discussing bullying, self-acceptance, differences, etc.

This book defies stereotypes! Want a book with a strong female heroine for your children, then this book is for you. The little girl is Nusaiba; I absolutely love her name, named after an amazing strong sahabiya who actually physically defended the Prophet (pbuh) against harm in a battle!

She hears fifth graders snickering and assumes they are making fun of her mothers hijab! The book is illustrated beautifully with pictures showing her picking out her own special hijab, each hijab taking her on an adventure.

The highlight is when Nusaiba defends her mother against the bullies, and shows her pride in her islamic identity! Such important character building for our children!
Something I absolutely loved:
Her mother has such a cool career, and you must read the book to figure out what it is !
A must have for all little girls!
