Today, we met Sufiya Ahmed, the wonderful author of ‘The Best Eid Ever’. She read to us and we were amazed by the events that take place during Eid. We were very much awe of the beautiful illustrations too. We were able to retell information from the story and really appreciated the festival that is Eid. This visit came at the perfect time as some of us will be celebrating Eid.

We also had the opportunity to create our very own henna patterns. Sufiya showed us how to create the patterns and we found that we were awesome at designing!

We left the workshop with our very own copy of ‘The Best Eid Ever’ signed by Sufiya herself.

Thank you so much to Sufiya Ahmed and Bloomsbury Publishing – we are so lucky to not only have experienced such a wonderful workshop, but to have learnt something new along the way.
