My First Surahs

A child's first surahs are often learned by ear, at bedtime or in the car, long before their meaning sinks in. My First Surahs gives parents a way to add that meaning. It pairs seven surahs with seven lessons for everyday life, so a child hears what the words ask of them as well as how they sound.

Hajar Ashmawey, a mental health professional in Dallas, wrote the book for reading aloud to little ones. Jenny Reynish illustrated it, with one full piece of art for each surah.
