Yasmin the Detective by Saadia Faruqi

4.0

This was such a cute little short story! It's my first time reading a Yasmin book, but I really loved the art and Yasmin is such a proactive kid, deciding to be a detective and find out what happened to her Nani's missing items, using all of the things she sees on TV and learns at school to figure out who the culprit is. I also loved the use of Urdu in the story and even the glossary and info at the back. It's a book that tells a story, informs young readers, and helps them review what they've read. Would love to read more of these books!
