These are christian ladies wearing headscarfs. That kind of stuff isn't exclusive from Islamic countries but it goes to show how ignorant some people can be.

No, if all this had been around when I was that age I would have gone straight for the adult-oriented books. I hated the books I supposed to read at school when I was 8-9, they were so childish! I remember protesting this at school one day, and my teacher asked me what I was reading. I pulled out Asimov's Foundation Trilogy that I'd found at home; she saw my point.
With 8 years I was playing with Playmobil and reading Mortadelo y Filemón comics... so yeah, people shouldn't generalise what kids like or don't like
Now I have the cartoon's song lodged inside my skull. Thankyouverymuch.

Brace yourself for them trying to add it to canon at some point.
Everything is canon, not necessarily true.

They are not. It's ages 8 to 12, to be pedantic. And I think the focus is more on the 8-10 segment.
