![]() ![]() Yasmin the Painter: Yasmin’s school is having an art competition and Yasmin is nervous because she doesn’t consider herself a very good artist. While they stop at different stalls and Yasmin adds to her map, the temptation of a playground draws Yasmin away from her mom, but luckily her map can guide her back. Inspired, Yasmin decides to make her own map of the neighborhood, which gets really exciting when her mom asks her if she wants to join her on a shopping trip to the farmer’s market. ![]() Yasmin the Explorer: The book starts out with Yasmin’s dad telling her about explorers and maps. The individual stories are 6 x 9 and 32 pages, and whether you buy the collection or the individual stories, they are under $6. The version I have is 5.5 x 7 and 96 pages long which includes a Think About It, Talk About It section at the back as well as a glossary of Urdu words, some facts about Pakistan and a recipe for Mango and instructions to make a bookmark craft. You can buy each of the books separately in a larger format, and possibly a longer story. ![]() The book I have, Meet Yasmin! contains all four stories: Yasmin the Explorer, Yasmin the Painter, Yasmin the Builder, and Yasmin the Fashionista. Seriously, this book is overdue and so well done, I can’t wait for the author, illustrator, and publisher, to team up to do more. ![]() Yes! Yes! Yes! A strong and relatable 2nd grade, Pakistani-American Muslim girl, with stories written on a AR 2.4 -2.5 level, learns lessons and grows in everyday scenarios. ![]()
