Abdullah’s Bear Needs A Name is a beautiful story Abdullah’s Bear Needs A Name is a beautiful story that celebrates culture and traditions. Inspired by the author’s real experience at an inner-city elementary school in the UK, Yasmin created a story that promotes diversity, community, and culture. When South Asian kids who had names like Anum and Saad came up with names like Alan and Sarah for a teddy bear, Yasmin wondered why none of the kids chose names like their own. So, she created this beautiful book that celebrates Muslim culture and gives kids a book with characters that look like them. 

When Abdullah gets a teddy bear for Eid, he can’t decide what to name it. Others offer names like Roger, Hercules, Henry, Elizabeth, and more, but none of them felt right in his heart. It isn’t until Abdullah thinks about his family’s stories and traditions that he comes up with the perfect name for the bear. 

Many thanks to @pubspotlight for sending me a copy of the book🧸

Rock and Roll couldn’t be more different. Rock is Rock and Roll couldn’t be more different. Rock is strong and Roll is soft. Rock can swim and Roll can fly. But, even though they are different and come from different places, they have some qualities that are shared. They are both team players. They both look fabulous in green. And, they both love getting dressed up.

Rock and Roll is a beautiful book that celebrates friendship. It shows kids that even though you make look different and come from different places, you can still have similar qualities, like being kind and working with others. It’s a great book to celebrate our similarities and differences, because that’s what makes us unique! 

Many thanks to @pubspotlight for sending me a copy of the book! 🪨

Pecosita’s Freckly Freckle Face is a beautiful sto Pecosita’s Freckly Freckle Face is a beautiful story about loving yourself and what makes you special!

Everyone has something that makes them special and for Pecosita, it’s her freckles. Her family tells her all the way her freckles are beautiful - her abuela say they remind her of stars in the sky and her sister even draws freckles on her face before leaving the house. While some kids make fun of her freckles, Pecosita loves her freckles - they are her favorite part of herself 🩷

This is such a beautiful, empowering book for kids! Beauty standards today make it hard for kids (and adults) to love every part of themselves, so it’s incredible to see books like this one that show kids that are differences make us beautiful. 

Many thanks to @simonkids for sending me a copy of the book! 🩷
