AMARILLO, Texas (KAMR/KCIT) – Aazmia Islam just completed second grade, and she is already celebrating so much more as her first book becomes published. The book is titled “Jaylyn Grace Wins the Big Race,” and it focuses on a girl who attends Woodlands Elementary and is preparing to race with her new track team.
“I got the idea from my book because one day it came to my mind and I wanted to write it down, and I thought it would be fun and cool to be an author,” added Islam.

Islam added that the process to write the book was pretty simple, with her completing it all in one day and handing it over to her brother for him to do the rest.
“I mainly helped my sister because it’s all her idea. All the credit goes to her. I just helped her with all the formalities, typing it, proofreading it, and sending it out to the publisher,” added Aazmia’s brother and also book contributor Rayeed Islam.
Aazmia added that, of course, she has a favorite part of the book, but encourages readers to read along so they can also figure out their favorite part…
