Planet Omar

My parents decided it would be a good idea to move house and move me to a new school at the same time. As if I didn't have a hard enough time staying out of trouble at home, now I've also got to try and make new friends. What's worse, the class bully seems to think I'm the perfect target. At least Eid's around the corner, which means a feast (yay!) and presents (double yay!). Well, as long as I can stay in Mum and Dad's good books long enough....

Omar and his friends have been saving up their pocket money for ages so they can have the world's most epic Nerf Blaster battle. But when Omar discovers that his mosque is in trouble, they decide to donate their pennies to help save it. Everything goes PERFECTLY, until the money mysteriously goes missing. Can they work out who has taken it in time to stop the mosque closing down? And what exactly is Omar's sister Maryam hiding in her room?

When Omar and his friends come back after the school holidays, their lovely teacher seems to have been replaced by somebody much more grumpy. Overhearing other teachers talking about her, Omar decides something terrible has happened. Could she possibly have been abducted by...aliens?! Omar persuades his friends to mount a rescue mission, but what they find is very surprising!

When Omar's best friend, Daniel, messes up at school, Omar decides to take the blame to save him from getting in trouble—which makes him feel like a hero! With this taste of heroism, Omar takes the blame for a couple of small things other kids in the class have done—without realising that when something more serious happens, the signs will point to him since he's been so unusually troublesome. The teachers are SURE the culprit must be Omar. Can his friends prove his innocence and show that he wasn't responsible for the chaos?

Omar and his friends are taking part in a national rocket building competition. With a little help from Omar's scientist mum and dad and some fart power too, they come up with a rocket that's ready to blast off. But when someone starts sabotaging the rockets, the boys find themselves on a new mission to reveal the culprit.
