Two pigeons on a pilgrimage: A Hajj story

Written by: Rabia Bashir @bismillahbees
Illustrated by: Aisha Dean

This sweet rhyming story is about two pigeons who fly all the way to Makkah to perform Hajj. Join them as they flutter along with the crowd, witnessing all the different rituals of Hajj while doing the blessed pilgrimage!

This story is really unique because I have never read Hajj stories from animals’ point of view, so the cute pigeons’ Hajj adventure makes the story really exciting! The beautiful illustrations and hearty rhymes really bring the book to life!

I also love the hajj diagram at the back of the book that explains hajj step-by-step. There are also other fun activities at the back along with a glossary.

I highly recommend this book!

My rating: 5 / 5
