Wasim's Challenge by Chris Ashley (author) and Kate Pankhurst (illustrator)

Year Five are off to Snowdonia on a challenge week – and Wasim Ahmed is going! He has all his brand new kit ready, and he’s been looking forward to it for months. But there’s a problem that he hasn’t fully thought through. In a coming-of-age bid sparked by a comment from another child at his mosque, Wasim has vowed to partake in the Ramadan fast leading up to Eid. But he’s also decided to keep his dawn-to-dusk fast secret. It’s not long before lack of food and drink causes his behaviour to deteriorate, and he has to sit out of the first day’s activities. Then a box of Mars bars disappears and Wasim beomes the prime suspect! But then next day, a walk turns into near disaster when the group gets lost. Fainting with hunger, Wasim finds himself in serious danger on the mountainside…

Exploring the challenges faced by a Muslim child in multicultural Britain, this is a gripping adventure featuring the likeable star of Wasim the Wanderer and Wasim One Star.
