Yasmin Nahar is a single disabled mum living with her two daughters in Luton. Yasmin was born and bred in Luton, Bedfordshire. She completed her BSc Hons in Computer and Internet Applications in 2003. She has always been interested in writing for younger readers, as she wants to encourage helping society in some sort of way; she has found that with the help of her characters in her story she is able to do this. Adventures of Zara and Jannat: Bangladesh is Yasmin’s first book, where the main characters have been named after her own two daughters.
I thought it was a lovely way of introducing an aspect of another culture to children
A Fantastic little book full of engaging and colourful pictures to grab children’s attention. The story
Captivates the reader on an adventure beyond their imagination. My children loved learning about Cultural differences and most off all how the story has a moral/lesson behind it. A must read for all children, 5 stars from my house hold!!!
What a delightful book with a lovely message. There are surely many adventures ahead for Zara and Jannat as they share their own experiences of a loving upbringing and gentle, modern style education. I will be following these adventures and suspect as they grow older, their characters will reveal the difference between the "very sensible" sister and the "full of mischief" sister. Can't wait.
A short educational adventure story that gives children an insight into another culture. Big font size and pictures - perfect for young readers. Looking forward to the sisters' future adventures together.
What a fantastic book , loved reading about the girls adventure , it's a fun read full of character , excitement as to where the girls will travel and also the writer has cleverly added a deep message and meaning behind the story which teaches children about life skills and culture .this encourages diversity and awareness of other cultures which is fantastic .The illustrations are very eyecatching and engages the reader .
