Battutabooks - The story
"Travel - it leaves you speechless, then it turns you into a storyteller."
The idea
High quality and innovative personalized children's books
In 2019, there was not a single provider of personalized Islamic children’s books. Why, we asked ourselves. We answered this question by serving this market ourselves and offering our own books. Our first personalized Islamic children’s book has been available since 2020. Every year inshAllah new books are added.
Our mission
In the footsteps of Ibn Battuta
“Travel – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta
Ibn Battuta was a 14th century Muslim traveler who had devoted his entire life to travel and foreign cultures. Thus he got to know different cultures, which he knew how to combine in his own way. He has lived and served in different countries and was able to share and contribute his different cultural experiences.
We are inspired by Ibn Battuta because we also want to connect cultures. We provide a bridge for those who love and live in Germany. But do not want to give up their own values, but share them.
In addition, with our products, which we will always expand, we want to give Muslim parents the opportunity to take their children on a journey. On a journey of beautiful memories. On a journey as a storyteller.
The team
By Muslims for Muslims
We are still a small team and still growing. But without a team, a project like Battutabooks is not possible. Here you can find insight into our team of Battutabooks. If you would like to join us on our journey, feel free to write to: [email protected]
