Hena Khan, ZARA'S RULES FOR RECORD-BREAKING FUN

Zibby interviews award-winning children’s author Hena Khan about Zara’s Rules for Record-Breaking Fun, the first book in a humor-filled middle-grade series about neighborhood antics starring Zara, a young Muslim girl and the queen bee of it all! Hena talks about the childhood memories that inspired the story (it involves dreams of breaking a Guinness World Record and a tragic hula hoop incident) and her ultimate goal of adding diversity to children’s literature (she is Pakistani American and Muslim, and never saw herself in books growing up!). She also discusses her writing, publishing, and touring experiences (and the impacts of the pandemic and imposter syndrome on it all). Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: bit.ly/3hpbVsWBookshop: bit.ly/3VXM36FSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
