Sulaiman faces a devastating loss whilst on holiday with his family.

Learning to deal with loss is a story about a young Muslim boy on holiday with his family when he learns that his grandfather has passed away. Although it is a shock to them all, Sulaiman is particularly upset.

It raises many questions in his mind and evokes turbulent emotions that he has not experienced before. Through it, he learns the Islamic concept of death; how to deal with losses and changes in life and how it is all linked to a greater purpose.

Sulaiman and the Tides of Change is the third book in a series of stories about the adventures of a young Muslim boy.  Sulaiman and his family love visiting his grandparents, who live by the coast. They spend the holidays together – exploring the coastline, playing on the beach, eating Grandma’s homecooked food and enjoying Grandpa’s bedtime stories.
