Media Reviews
The well-executed verse and friendly, if not entirely skillful cartoons provide a positive, child's-eye-view perspective on the journey. A foldout map and cutout paper dolls add an additional interactive dimension, allowing children to walk the dolls through the same steps that the family undertakes through Umrah Publishers weekly
