Not Now, Noor!
By Farhana Islam
Illustrated by Nabila Adani
A funny and warm look at why a young girl's family wear hijabs - is to just hide snacks or is there a bigger reason?
Noor loves her mum, and all the other hijabi women in her family, but wonders why do they wear headscarves? Is it so they can hide snacks for later? Or because they're a super spy and hiding their secret identity?
Full of curiousity, Noor sets out to find her answer, but her family are all busy and have no time to answer this important question. Just as Noor is ready to give up on her quest, her Ammu arrives home and knows just the thing to say.
This heart-warming yet funny tale is a celebration of Muslim women, curious children, and family love.
