I prefer "The Proudest Blue," but I also enjoyed this one. I loved how kids explored what they viewed as the perfect/ideal world, and the central character chose a kind world. The book then explored how people can be kind in small ways. I loved the diversity presented her and the capturing and normalizing of Hijab wearers. A great addition to The Proudest Blue. Simple theme, but loved the message.

When asked what kind of world she wants to live in, Faizah wishes for a kind one. She and her best friend, Sophie use their power of kindness to change the world, one interaction at a time.
A companion to The Proudest Blue, Olympic Medalist Ibtihaj Muhammad knocks it out the of the park again. She teaches the power of kindness while highlighting different cultures and skin tones. Children who wear a hijab will feel connected and seen in this children’s book.
