Omar and his family have just moved to a new house. There they have a new grumpy old neighbour and are the only Muslims in the area.
As Omar joins a new school he goes through the motions of being nervous to finding a friend in Charlie but also a bully in Daniel.
Though as his neighbour falls ill, the family celebrate Eid and a trip to London for school goes awry, drama mounts up but it may be for the better overall!
The book focuses on showing how a Muslim family lives their day to day life and how they can face prejudice and try to make people more tolerant of their beliefs and how they are just like us apart from they have to say their prayers multiple times a day really! It highlights the importance of Mali friends and not judging someone even bullies can change and aren't always big and scary and great debut I can't wait for more in Omar's series!
Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book for them!
