'I
have only two words for the creative, fun and educational Islamic Rose
books. Thank God! It's such a pleasure to place these books into the hands
and the minds and the hearts of every child, Muslim and non-Muslim alike,
with the comfortable knowledge that the uniquely crafted lessons within
will leave the readerstouched and all the better for it.'
the late Mrs
Amatullah Almarwani, Author of 'Zaahir and Jamel, the Camel' series “Islamic
Rose Books are great! Mrs. Delgado and Rose sure know how to hook a kid's
interest. Every time my mom got a new chapter, she read the books to me
and my brother. We sat with our eyes glued to her! After the first couple
of chapters, we both started to pester her over and over to find out where
the rest were! It was so much fun to read about Rose, and the way the
stories are written, they leave you in suspense!” Madeline
and Marcus Flamiano, twins, 12 years, California USA
I
have been waiting with anticipation for the books release since reading
the first book. The chapters are perfectly balanced with learning, intrigue
and delicious recipes! This is a series that anyone can enjoy, Muslim or
non-Muslim, child or adult, and I plan to share it with all my friends,
relatives and customers.'

'I've
just finished reading 'The Visitors'. Quite interesting and
definitely for my 11-year old sister. A perfect present for her!
She lives in Hong Kong, so the cross-culture Islamic theme is
very relevant for her.'

Rose's dad wants her to meet kids of
different races, cultures and religions. He says the new school will be
an adventure. No way! Only a grown-up would tell a kid that going to a
new school is an adventure. But, could he be right?

These books chronicle the life of Rose, her dad, her grandparents and a
truly diverse group of “different” friends.
Rose enters public school after years of being sheltered in a
private, homogeneous Christian academy.
During her first week, she is witness to the shunning and
belittling of the ‘outs’ by the ‘ins’.
Acting from the lessons, examples and advice imparted by not only
her family but also by two special friends—Abdul and Fahd, Muslim police
officers from Saudi Arabia hosted by her grandparents for a year long
exchange program—Rose begins to see how different can be awesome.
Unique Features of Islamic Rose Books
Included
in each book is a glossary of Islamic words and definitions, descriptions
of countries and historical locations, Internet web-links for more
