Nadia Islam, On the Record by Adiba Jaigirdar 9-11 DG

VIEW IN EDSHED

Aspiring journalist Nadia Islam hates that she's missing out on spending Ramadan with her best friend to go to

Bangladesh. But the trip unexpectedly puts her reporting skills to the test.

Her journalist aunt - Nadia's khalamoni - is in Bangladesh too, but not just for Ramadan or Eid, like Nadia. She's there to write a story on the increasing climate change problem in Bangladesh and how people are being affected by it. The more Nadia learns from her khalamoni, the more eager she is to help.

Her brother and cousins try to distract her with a Ramadan competition. She wants to beat them all - of course! - but her aunt needs her too.
