Nusaiba and The 5th Grade Bullies by Asmaa Hussein

Nusaiba is excited about school – especially show and tell! But after hearing a mean comment in the school hallway about what her mother is wearing, Nusaiba slumps at her desk all day.

Through a fantastical journey of adventure and self-discovery, Nusaiba gains the confidence necessary to embrace her identity and stand up for herself.

P.S. We chose the name “Nusaiba” because it has such a strong history in our faith. Make sure to teach your kids about Nusaiba bint Ka’b when you’re reading this Islamic children’s book to them!
