A beautiful collection of biographies about amazing Muslim women! I hadn’t heard of many of these women and girls, so it was great to learn about the things they’re doing that are so important!

I loved reading this with my high school students. Many of my Muslim girls, especially hijabis, were excited and naturally stepped up into leadership roles for group presentations on this. The detailed illustrations help readers who typically struggle with comprehension. I'll absolutely be using this in my classroom for the foreseeable future.

Loved the artwork! Highlights many wonderful women, many of whom I hadn't heard of before. Really great format. Wouldn't necessarily buy for my 3-year-old niece, but definitely when she's a tad older.

A wonderful introduction to kids of Muslim girls and women who have made important contributions from activism, fashion, science, entertainment and more. An inspirational book for any child: girl, boy, Muslim, non-Muslim to strive for what interests and not let society hold him or her back. An empowering book for today's readers.

Beautifully-illustrated book highlighting some notable Muslim female personals both from the present and recent past, some of which I have known about before reading this book.

The illustrations are so colorful and reach little paragraph that accompanies each of the highlighted women send a great message to the reader, both female and male alike.
