Civilian Publishing Al-Alwan, Al-Ashkaal, Al-Arqam: Learning My Arabic Colors, Shapes & Numbers

I started teaching my son Arabic before he could talk. This author and illustrator have done it. The illustrations are nice and clean, not too overwhelming. And the pages are nice and thick. Highly Highly recommend it, and the arabic alphabet book too, also from the same duo. Wonderful!

I have this and the alphabet book. Love the size and high quality. Really nice pictures and modern looking.

The illustrations in all 3 books are great. The bold colors in are perfect for reading to infants. My daughters eyes search the entire page noticing the different shades,shapes and the huroof. And even motions her tiny mouth trying to pronounce the words words. But she always ends up falling asleep by the time I get to the shapes. She’s only a month old but she definitely enjoys this book! I really hope these sisters make more of these books as they are very engaging, well written and great as a supplementary learning tool for any parent looking to introduce Arabic to very young children.

I bought every children's Arabic book on Amazon. These are undoubtedly my favorites. I speak a little Arabic but don't read it so the Arabic in English letters was SO SO SOOOOO helpful. I even was able to pick up a few new words myself. All the books by this author and illustrator are very elegant and beautiful. These books are well done!

We own three books by this author and love them all. The Arabic writing and the English phonetic spelling is the perfect combo for beginners, multilingual households, and memorization. My vocabulary has improved just from looking at these books with my son.

The design and art in this simple board book elevates the idea of a board book. This book is both vibrant and muted, easy and a pleasure for the eyes. I went back and bought the Family book as well. Outstanding work creating a coffee table board book.

Honestly one of the greatest book for kids and it looks like there was a lot of effort has been applied to produce such a wonderful design. I love it and hope to see more books for different ages from this publisher.

It’s very cute, my only complaint is the actual Arabic words for the numbers are missing. So I took it upon myself to write it in with permanent marker. That’s why I docked one star. Other than that all of the shapes and colors have both Arabic words and the romanized pronunciation below it. I’m not sure why they didn’t do that for the numbers as well. It’s already a hit in this house. The design is very cute and clean without being over simplified.
