This book was a great contemporary read based on an old fashioned English village .A popular family in the community Bilal Hasham and his wife Mariam turn their village life upside down when Bilbal’s mum dies his aunt who does not speak English comes to stay and he decides to honour his mother’s dying words to build a mosque. It splits the community in half and causes prejudices in their so called friends and neighbours . Khala Bilbal’s aunt slowly moves through the villagers with her broken English and kind deeds and unities the village once more . This is lovely feel good tale and a great divide into different religions and societies and humbly shows us how we can all live in harmony
