Mini Travellers
This touching and warm picture book is a lovely celebration of family as well as Muslim family traditions of fathers gifting their children a name. It also makes a gentle point of the importance of - and politeness attached to - getting someone's name right, with a sweet little activity page at the end where the owner of the book can record their own name, what it means and who gave it to them.
