Yasmin

As their makerspace project, the students in Yasmin's second grade class are building a city: there are houses, a school, a church, even a castle, but Yasmin is not sure what to build--until inspiration strikes.

While her parents are out to dinner, a bored Yasmin decides to try on some of her mother's clothes, including her new shalwar kameez, which gets ripped--but with the help of Nana, Nani, and a glue-gun, the garment gets fixed, and Yasmin puts on an impromptu fashion show when her parents get home.

Yasmin's family is hosting a big party, but Yasmin is worried that the traditional food her family is cooking is too spicy--so her family challenges Yasmin to come up with a dish of her own.

When Ms. Alex is called away from the classroom, she leaves Yasmin in charge, but the other children just ignore her and start acting silly and noisy--until Yasmin thinks up a way to motivate them to finish the math assignment, quietly.

After carefully planning a visit with Aly and Emma, Yasmin is disappointed to see that they want to play on their own, but a creative compromise may make everyone happy.

When a new gym teacher introduces her gym class to soccer, Yasmin fears it will be as rough as the professional sport but must try to find courage to play goalie.

It is library day and helper Yasmin is busy shelving books, but suddenly she discovers that her own special book is missing, prompting her to calmly retrace her steps.

Everyone seems to have an idea for the science fair except for Yasmin, but after some failed experiments Yasmin's snack break with Nani inspires an idea.

Nani likes to sit outside and sew, but little things like her thimble keep disappearing, so she turns detective and applies a science lesson to solve the mystery.

On her family's visit to a farm, Yasmin is thrilled to play with the baby chicks, but when she forgets to close the pen door and one goes missing, Yasmin has to scramble to find it.

"Yasmin wants to be an astronaut someday, but after a class trip to the space museum, she’s not sure she’s cut out for space flight. Then a tour of the mission control exhibit gives Yasmin another idea about how her future might lift off!" --publisher's website.

Yasmin opted to be the director of her school play, but she is finding it difficult to keep the actors happy and the play moving forward--until she finally asserts her authority and makes the changes necessary to save the play.
