Planet Omar is a fantastic illustrated series for readers 7+.
Omar is a boy with a huge imagination, which sometimes lands him in trouble…
Zanib Mian’s hilarious text and Nasaya Mafaridik's glorious cartoon-style illustrations make the Planet Omar series perfect for fans of Tom Gates and Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
Zanib Mian’s books manage to deal with important issues such as bullying and prejudice in a fun and sensitive way, with diary entries that will make you laugh out loud, featuring Muslim traditions, a lot of silliness, and a very relatable family.
You can read the Planet Omar books in any order, although we recommend starting with book one Accidental Trouble Magnet to get to know Omar and his friends.
