Written as a letter from a father to his daughter, Yo Soy Muslim is a celebration of social harmony and multicultural identities. The vivid and elegant verse, accompanied by magical and vibrant illustrations, highlights the diversity of the Muslim community as well as Indigenous identity. A literary journey of discovery and wonder, Yo Soy Muslim is sure to inspire adults and children alike.
Why I like this book: Yo Soy Muslim because it touches on themes of religion in a different way. This makes the reader think about the reaches of the Islam religion not only being in Asia This challenges people’s understanding about how diverse the world is.
