In addition to presenting our titles, Hena Khan was in conversation with Booklist Books for Youth Editor Sarah Hunter. Hena is the author of Zain’s Super Friday (October 2023) and Behind My Doors (May 2024). This excellent conversation provided context behind these two fabulous books, one of which shares the experience of a young Muslim boy at his first jumu’ah prayers and the other tells the story oldest operating library in existence that was originally founded by a Muslim woman in 859!
