Editorial Reviews

Review

In this joyful, reassuring series, a second-grader solves typical kid problems like getting separated from her parents when they're shopping, and spilling on her clothes. Faruqi, who was born in Pakistan, integrates the country's customs into the plots. Full-color illustrations throughout make this series even more engaging, says Parents advisor Jennifer Serravallo, author of The Reading Strategies Book. 12 books, ages 5 to 8-- "Parents"

About the Author

Hatem Aly is an Egyptian-born illustrator whose work has been featured in multiple publications worldwide. He currently lives in beautiful New Brunswick, Canada, with his wife, son, and more pets than people. When he is not dipping cookies in a cup of tea or staring at blank pieces of paper, he is usually drawing books. One of the books he illustrated is The Inquisitor's Tale by Adam Gidwitz, which won a Newbery Honor and other awards despite Hatem's drawings of a two-headed cat, and stinky cheese.

Saadia Faruqi is a Pakistani American writer, essayist and interfaith activist. She writes for a number of publications including the Huffington Post, and is editor-in-chief of Blue Minaret, a magazine for Muslim art, poetry and prose. Her adult short story collection Brick Walls: Tales of Hope & Courage from Pakistan was published in 2015. She resides in Houston, TX with her husband and children.

I loved the different subjects, the educational value of recycling and reading, and the ability to relate emotionally to Yasmin. The cultural foods and clothing and language mixed in is done beautifully. And the illustrations are beautiful and capturing.

Oh, the Yasmin! series has just been getting stronger and stronger with each release!

Give It A Try, Yasmin! covers some of my new favorite Yasmin standalone stories. This volume includes:
Yasmin the Librarian
Yasmin the Scientist
Yasmin the Recycler
Yasmin the Singer

More great moments of Yasmin's family being adorable! Ongoing thoughtful and nuanced representation of gender roles! Further examples of Yasmin triumphing over her anxious perfectionism! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

My daughter loves the Yasmin series, I’ve bought multiple books and have found them engaging and she seems to relate and also recognised elements of the stories. It does help that she knows a Yasmin too lol
