Why Should My Child Read This Book?
This book is full of vibrant language and memorable rhymes which remind children of the pitfalls of bad behavior and the rewards of embodying moral character through playful narratives.
A few of the poems mention a man being married to more than one woman at the same time. This may be a good opportunity to explain to children than this was a common practice in ancient times, although less common now. It was also a practice of our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ although it is rarely practiced by Muslims in the West.
What’s This Book About?
Join dear Montmorency as he indulges his sweet tooth, the Pasha of Salonica whose family fears for his health, Aisha Featherstone-Pugh who is having trouble with her ablutions, and the Masjid Mouse from Merry Lane who never forgets his prayers in a delightful collection of rhymes relayed in the style of the classics.
