The Food We Eat by Farah Sardar

Our grand daughter Ai, 3 years old, asked me to read her this book after i've performed solah zuhur today and once again after i've performed solah asar. Do you want me to read it to you too? Okey, lets go..

Allah made round, red tomatoes and leaffy lettuce
and Allah made cool cucumbers
and hot peppers
Allah made peas in pods
and bananas in skins
and Allah made sour lemmons
and sweet oranges
Allah made smooth cherries
and fuzzy peaches
and Allah made crisp apples
and juicy pears
Allah made grapes in bunches
and potatoes with eyes!
Allah gave us creamy milk from cows
and sweet honey from bees
and brown eggs from hens
and meat from sheep
But I like strawberries best of all!
Bismillah...

(Each row represents each page of the book with its beautiful illustrations).
