A Horn Book selection for "Picture Book Biographies for Women's
History Month 2022" Fatima had one wish . . . Fatima al-Fihri loved
to learn. She wanted to know everything, like how birds flew, why
the sky was blue, and how flowers grew. But more than anything, she
wanted a school for all, where anyone could study and become
whatever they wanted, like teachers, scientists, and doctors. As
she grew older, Fatima carried her one wish inside her, through
good times and bad. Fueled by her faith and her determination, she
worked hard to make her one wish come true. For over a thousand
years, Fatima's one wish-her school-served students and scholars
from around the globe, and it continues to do so today! With
lyrical text by M. O. Yuksel (author of In My Mosque) and stunning
illustrations by Mariam Quraishi, this true-life portrait of an
extraordinary Muslim woman shows the importance of never giving up
on your dreams and how we all have the power to change the world
for the better. "This is a well-crafted picture book biography,
especially given that so little is known of al-Fihri's early years.
The focus on her legacy, as well as the back matter with time lines
and translations, is a strong pull for readers. Who could not love
a book about a girl whose first spoken word was "read"? Add this
biography to any collection looking to be well rounded when it
comes to women's history."-School Library Journal, starred review
"An inspiring profile of a tenacious trailblazer that highlights
the power of knowledge. Quraishi's transporting
gouache-and-watercolor illustrations furnish a nuanced portrayal of
the early medieval Arab world." -Kirkus "Advocating for persistence
and education, this picture book adroitly demonstrates how
al-Fihri's Muslim faith inspired her community care." -Publishers
Weekly "In a text rich with imagery, Yuksel (In My Mosque) tells
the true story of Fatima al-Fihri, whose one wish was to build a
school for all. The illustrations develop their own visual
language. A welcome story that emphasizes the intellectual
foundations of Islamic North Africa and the importance of
charitable work that plants seeds for subsequent generations."
