Meet Yasmin! by Saadia Faruqi
5.0
I received an eARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This was a super cute and fun read. Each of the stories engages the curiosity and creativity of young children through short illustrated anecdotes that present a problem or challenge and lead to a solution through Yasmin exercising her imagination and brainstorming. Yasmin's Pakistani family and heritage are seamlessly integrated into the story, and the final pages include a glossary and facts sheet that teach a little Urdu and Pakistani culture. In short, it's a great read that works as both a window and mirror book.
