Sadiq and the Cookie Crash

by Siman Nuurali, Christos Skaltsas (Illustrator)

Overview

Sadiq wants to earn money to buy a birthday gift for Hooyo. A lemonade stand provides inspiration and, after some business advice, Sadiq, Zaza, and Manny start a cookie delivery business! Sadiq’s brother and sister join in to help, but starting a business turns out to be tricky—and messy. With a sick baker, a cookie crash, and other baking boo-boos, will Sadiq’s cookie biz be a bust? Somali American author Siman Nuurali offers another installment in the delightful Sadiq chapter book series.
