First Festivals: Ramadan: a lift-the-flap book

About this book

A new moon has appeared, which means that it’s the month of Ramadan. This charming board book takes the reader through the various traditions that Muslims follow during Ramadan, such as helping others and fasting in the daytime. It is explained that Ramadan is a time for Muslims to grow closer to God, or Allah, and that it culminates in Eid when a new crescent moon appears.

The soft illustrations show a variety of families and communities, eating together, praying together in the mosque and exchanging presents. Children will enjoy lifting the large flaps to reveal moments of joy and celebration. A delightful first introduction to Ramadan.
