Yasmin jumped up Yes It will be an exploration She could hardly wait as Mama got her hijab and purse Don’t forget your map Baba said Every explorer needs a map
CHAPTER 2 The Farmer’s Market Mama and Yasmin walked down the street to the farmer’s market The air was fresh and smelled like flowers This way to the market Mama Yasmin said pointing at her map The street was crowded There were people everywhere Hold my hand Yasmin I don’t want you to get lost Mama warned Their first stop was the fruit seller Mama bought strawberries and bananas Yasmin sat down on the sidewalk and added the fruit seller to her map Their next stop was the bakery stall It had all sorts of breads and they all smelled delicious Thin ones and fat ones Big ones and small ones Yum
Two naan please Mama called out Yasmin added the bakery stall to her map
There were so many good smells and things to see Yasmin saw a man holding balloons Down the street a lady was selling roses An ice-cream truck was parked at the corner Finally she found what she was looking for The playground Yasmin was itching to explore Mama the park I’ll be right back
