Sabrina Shah Books

A celebration of traditional music from Pakistan! A beautifully illustrated story book about the love of music and Roohi learning to find the confidence and her own rhythm to perform. A great story to learn about other cultures, family, identity and persistence.

In addition to the wonderful, heartwarming story about perseverance, the back of the book has four information pages that include lots of key information to learn about and celebrate the culture of Pakistan. Here you can learn all about the Rabab instrument, and there is even a QR code to listen to samples of the music. This section includes a glossary of terms, explains traditional clothing, describes Pakistan (with pictures and a map) and gives an outline of Eid.

A fantastic additional text for anyone learning about different cultures, family traditions and persistence.
