Nadia Islam, on the Record : A heartwarming, must-read story that celebrates family, faith and community

A heartwarming and authentic story that explores family, religion and fighting for what’s right, from award-winning author Adiba Jaigirdar. Aspiring journalist Nadia Islam hates that she’s missing out on spending Ramadan with her best friend to go to Bangladesh. But the trip unexpectedly puts her reporting skills to the test. Her journalist aunt – Nadia’s khalamoni – is in Bangladesh too, but not just for Ramadan or Eid, like Nadia. She’s there to write a story on the increasing climate change problem in Bangladesh and how people are being affected by it. The more Nadia learns from her khalamoni, the more eager she is to help. Her brother and cousins try to distract her with a Ramadan competition. She wants to beat them all – of course! – but her aunt needs her too. Can Nadia put aside her competitiveness to beat her brother and cousins to figure out what Ramadan is really all about?
