I find the history as presented is sentimental, and contrasts somewhat with the surahs of the Qur'an. I'm sure a few Hadiths that claim Islam is a religion of peace helped supply this romantic look at the beginning of Islam.

it's such a great book to read, for those who are curious about the history of Islam and the Prophet. I think this book is for Adult (in consideration of the languange, picture and story) and not for children. But for Parents, its better to tell their children this story as bedtime stories.
