What do you do with the wrong kind of attention?
Dress Coded meets Amina's Voice in this must-read middle grade novel by Maleeha Siddiqui.
Ainy is excited for summer! She plans on working at her mom's clothing store, having adventures with her best friend, and maybe even starting to wear the hijab--just like her big sister.
Everything changes when a boy from her community starts messaging her and following her around, even showing up at the store while she's working! Ainy knows his behavior isn't okay, but she can't find the words to tell the people around her how the unwanted attention makes her uncomfortable.
Finally, Ainy decides that she needs to start wearing the hijab to get him to leave her alone. She's always used fashion to express herself, so maybe now she can use it to become invisible.
But things don't get any better--and Ainy starts to realize that she's lost her own sparkle along the way. Maybe she can't handle this all on her own. With the help of her best friend and her sister, Ainy must find a way to stand her ground and get the respect that she knows she deserves--no matter how she looks.

Un salmo es un cántico que cantamos a Dios.
En ocasiones, el libro de los Salmos está lleno de gozo, pero en otras ocasiones puede estar lleno de aflicción. A veces los salmistas están llenos de enojo con el mundo o con Dios.

A través de muchas generaciones las personas han dependido de los amados cánticos antiguos para expresar sus emociones más profundas hacia Dios y hacia las demás personas.
Estos encantadores poemas, para lectores de todas las edades, tienen bellas ilustraciones y están inspirados en el libro de los Salmos. Estos hacen eco de toda su maravilla y valentÃa, de su consuelo y alegrÃa, y de su protección y amor. Para la niñez, Salmos de asombro ofrece una introducción y sirve como puente a las amadas frases e imágenes de la Biblia. Para quienes ya conocen y aman los salmos, los poemas revelan una perspectiva nueva y refrescante, manteniéndose fieles a traducciones bÃblicas respetables. Esta luminosa colección, perfecta para disfrutar y compartir, resonará en lo profundo de los corazones de las hijas e hijos de Dios.

When Kelsie Detweiler was looking for a good book that would teach her own young children they were perfectly created by their loving Creator, she discovered there weren't a lot of books out there that celebrated His beautiful intent for each one of us. Wanting something that would show her daughter she was fearfully and wonderfully made, Detweiler developed a beautiful picture book to discuss the uniqueness of each girl. The result is God Made You, My Darling Girl-a delightful, age-appropriate book to help begin the conversation about God's handiwork in our creation and what it means to be a girl. Also available is the companion book, God Made You, My Darling Boy.
Kelsie tackles the complex topic of gender with simple dexterity and straightforward storytelling. In a confusing time, Kelsie's writing is formative for little hearts and minds.

Where Is Jesus, Making All Things New, and Tiny Liturgies
God Made You, My Darling Girl is a book that needs to be read to every precious little girl. As a mom and grandma of six girls, I know that little ladies need to understand that God has had a plan for their womanhood ever since He created them in their mother's womb. Being a little girl is a gift that only God can give with the uniqueness of her body parts and the specialness and gift of being female. There is no confusion as to what God designs because He is the Master Creator with the perfect plan for every life He creates. Thank you, Kelsie, for writing this much-needed book and the reciprocal title for little boys!

What a delightfully refreshing book for young girls about their gender and immense value to God their Creator, Who made them uniquely different from boys but equally made in His image for a good purpose. God Made You, My Darling Girl by Kelsie Detweiler is a counter-cultural must-have book for Christian parents that's a breath of fresh air in a culture trying so hard to confuse our kids with a distorted view of their identity and gender. This book delivers a message of truth straight from the Bible that will affirm the God-given identity of every young girl. I have not read a book like this, and it's something our culture desperately needs. I highly recommend it!
