Book Description
This is a story about the Urdu alphabet and their mysterious adventure. Written in Urdu, and romanized Urdu, it makes the learning of the Urdu alphabet fun and memorable for early learners. Rhyme has a well-established association with the recall of facts. This book aims to add the element of rhyme to help make learning the Urdu alphabet easier. As a mother of two girls, I have taught them Urdu at home. I often struggled with the lack of engaging material. This book is what I wish I had to read aloud to them and engage them in the process. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoyed creating it.
