Book Synopsis

Journey across the globe with the Moon during the holy month of Ramadan, and discover how Muslims and non-Muslims alike can celebrate the Islamic month, ending with Eid!

This joyful and welcoming picture book captures the meaning of Ramadan, one of the world’s most important celebrations​, and explains the cultural differences across different countries by sharing the various practices – from the call to prayer, to sharing home-cooked food, and the art of henna.

With lyrical prose, beautiful illustrations, and a helpful fact page and glossary, this is the perfect gift book or introduction to Ramadan and Eid for all children.

Our Review Panel says...

In an unusual twist on the story of Ramadan, Moon is the central character, and you join her as she travels the world to watch Ramadan celebrations. She goes to different countries such as Turkey, Indonesia and the UK and watches the Ramadan and Eid celebrations take place.

This is a really clever way of describing Ramadan and how the celebrations can be slightly different in each country. The story is well illustrated, which adds to the understanding. It also features a lot of facts, so it is a good book to teach about Ramadan. For example, there is a section about the lunar cycle at the front and a glossary at the back that can help with vocabulary

A well-crafted story which helps teach about Ramadan – this will be a great addition to any school library.
