The Test Paper — Umm Zakiyyah

The Test Paper teaches children to be grateful for their lives by understanding that getting what you want can come in ways you'd never expect. In this debut children's book by Umm Zakiyyah, internationally acclaimed author of If I Should Speak and Muslim Girl, Zahra is sad that her friend Maha gets anything she wants. Maha even wins the top prizes at school. Zahra's mother keeps telling Zahra that life is a test, so she should focus on getting what she wants in Paradise. But Zahra can't think about that right now, because it's award day and Maha might win the best prize again!
