AlDhabi Rashed AlMheiri — 신동 전기

The record

The title is precise, and so is the margin. Youngest female to publish a bilingual book, achieved at seven years and 360 days: five days before her eighth birthday. Guinness requires 1,000 copies sold for its author categories, and the book passed that within two days.

Her mother, Mouza AlDarmaki, described the condition that most people assume is waived for a child that age. “That was one of the strict conditions set by the Guinness,” she said. “It was all her work except for some spelling corrections.”

What the book is about

I had an idea is 22 pages long and appears in both English and Arabic. It is not a picture story. It summarises a concept and the process of building it: Rainbow Chimney, an online platform through which children sell books and toys. Around that it works through the relationship between a mother, a daughter and a family.

AlDhabi's own summary of the argument is the most quotable line in the coverage, and it is a criticism rather than a description. “I wrote about how engaging with the family helps you more than when you use iPads and computers,” she said. She was in Year 4 at Al Ain Academy at the time.

A family of record holders

The AlMheiri children hold several Guinness titles between them. Her brother, Saeed Rashed AlMheiri, is recorded as the youngest male to publish a book, at four. Her younger sister AlMaha Rashed AlMheiri was recognised in January 2024, at three, as the world's youngest published writer, female.

Guinness World Records reported in 2023 that AlDhabi went on to break her own record, becoming the youngest female to publish a bilingual book series at eight years and 239 days, and founded an initiative called Books from Children to Children. That later sequence comes from the Guinness coverage of the family rather than from the 2022 Gulf News report used for most of this page.

What is documented, and what is not

Firm: her full name and date of birth, 13 July 2014; her home, Al Ain in Abu Dhabi; her school at the time, Al Ain Academy, Year 4; the Guinness title, youngest female to publish a bilingual book, at seven years and 360 days on 7 July 2022; the book, I had an idea, 22 pages, English and Arabic, about establishing the Rainbow Chimney platform; sales of more than 1,000 copies in two days; her mother's name, Mouza AlDarmaki; and both quotations.

Not documented in the Gulf News report used here: her siblings, who are named in later coverage of the family. Her father is not named. Nothing in this material records how the Rainbow Chimney platform has fared, what she has published since the series record, or how the family's run of records came about.

Why the youngest-author records cluster in the UAE

Guinness's author categories turn on a sales threshold rather than a literary judgement, which makes them unusually accessible to a determined family in a market where a thousand copies can be moved quickly. The United Arab Emirates has produced a striking concentration of these titles, and one family holds several of them.

That is worth stating without cynicism, because the underlying facts are unusual on any reading. A seven-year-old wrote a 22-page book in two languages about founding a business, and a national audience bought a thousand copies of it inside 48 hours. The record is the frame. The bilingual writing, and a child arguing in print that families matter more than screens, is the part that a sales figure does not capture.
