This adorable and insightful children's book is a must-have for any home or school library! I love reading it to my baby-to-be and plan to give copies to mommy friends as gifts. Every rhyme and picture is perfect for captivating kids' attention and explaining Islam to them. Highly recommended!

Masha Allah! This was a really nice alphabet book! The first of its kind to be honest that I have learned about. As a teacher I have read many different alphabet books but this one was refreshingly unique to Muslim children. The illustrations are fun, warm and whimsical. It is definitely a must have in any Muslim child's home library. More importantly, it can even be used in a non-Muslim setting be it home, library or school to help introduce the meaning of a variety of Islamic vocabulary to children and adults from different backgrounds. I highly recommend this book!

I can't believe it has taken so long for someone to write an insightful and fun book about Islam. 'Allah to Z' is a perfect learning tool for young Muslim children as well as a great introduction to Islam for children of all backgrounds. The illustrations are big and adventurous. The rhymes are fun and easy to learn. My niece and nephew LOVE it! 'Allah to Z' should be a part of everyone's children's books collection.

It was difficult for me to understand everything that was mentioned in this book because I don't know many of the Islamic phrases. However, I still really loved the concept of this book. This book is a great way to teach children about their faith and to have meaningful discussions in simple terms. Each letter's explanation made me want to learn more about Islam. I loved illustrations, they were colorful, fun, and overall just really stunning. I really wish there would be more books like this that would explain slightly complicated concepts to children in a way they can understand (especially through images that make the learning a celebration). the fact that children were illustrating the books principles (by being in basically all of the pictures) helps make the lessons more accessible to children. I don't know why but I really like the font. Also I really like how concise the pictures are and that there are more than one letter on a page. I particularly don't like when illustrations are confusing, in-concise, too big or too disjointed from the text. This book had great balance. Great read!

Great book! I have read it to my children and they seem to really enjoy it. I like that fact that it makes learning passive, so they do not realize they are learning the alphabet and factoids about Islam----which makes the learning process all the more fun. The book is colorful, which keeps the childrens attention as well.

This is a beautiful and intelligently produced teaching children with alphabets and Arabic names. Great work!
