Ramadan is the most sacred month of the year for more than one billion Muslims. This book describes the various customs and traditions of Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr celebrations in Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, North America, and Oceania and how social and political influences have shaped these observances.
A fine introduction for older children to this Islamic holy time, discussing its history and meaning and also the many ways it is celebrated in different Islamic communities around the world. I'll look for more titles in this series.
