Our Mission

LINA’S KALAM BOOKS was born out of a mission to address the profound questions children often ask about the world. Founder Lina Abdulkarim began her journey when her own children started posing challenges about life’s difficulties and the state of the world. These moments of inquiry inspired Lina to write children’s stories that could tackle tough subjects with sensitivity and depth.

At Lina’s Kalam Books, we believe in the power of storytelling to inspire, educate, and spark meaningful conversations. With a focus on stories that resonate with both children and parents, our books are designed to not only entertain but to encourage young readers to think, ask questions, and explore diverse perspectives. 

Our feature book, “It Could Have Been Me,” is a heartfelt example of this mission—inviting readers to step into others’ shoes and see the world through a lens of empathy and understanding.
