There was an Old Auntie who Swallowed a Samosa
There was an Old Auntie who Swallowed a Samosa
by Asmaa Hussein (Ruqaya's Bookshelf)
A colourful, hilarious iftar story that will leave your mini Muslim in stitches!
Auntie Sophia is making her special out-of-this-world samosas for the mosque iftar. But what this samosa pro doesn't know is that her kitty, Serrano, has some sneaky plans to alter her recipe! What will happen when she accidentally swallows a far too spicy pastry WHOLE?
"My children LOVE this book! We have laughed so hard while reading this together. This is also an excellent book to share with others outside of our faith. It talks about Ramadan without being ”too religious”. I sent this to my daughter’s second grade classroom for the month and she told me that it’s consistently the first book that everyone wants to read during free time. She shared that it has also helped to facilitate conversations at school about foods we eat and our family’s traditions. We are so grateful for this book and cannot recommend it enough!" - 5-star review by Ayesha Kazi
