Animals and coloring are the two things that reliably hold a three-year-old. This workbook uses both to introduce a script he will otherwise meet for the first time in a classroom.
Twenty-eight coloring pages for the twenty-eight letters, each built around an animal — so the letter arrives attached to a picture the child is spending several minutes with rather than as a shape on a chart.
That association is what makes it stick at this age. A child does not memorize the letter; he remembers the animal, and the letter comes with it.
The book states its audience plainly, and the design follows from it: nothing assumes prior familiarity with the script, and a parent who cannot read Arabic can still hand it over confidently.
Alia Khaled is a native Arabic speaker, an engineer and an educator, with a PhD from Johns Hopkins University. Her objective across all her books is to make learning Arabic enjoyable and accessible to non-Arabic-speaking families who want their children to learn the language of the Quran.
