Abbas introduces very young readers to the traditions of Ramadan in this engaging board book. A simple rhyming text and only a few words on each page show aspects of the holiday, which parents or educators can explain in further detail. Syed's illustrations are interesting and uncluttered, just right for young audiences. This book is part of the "Our Neighborhood" series that highlights different cultural celebrations from around the world; other series entries about Islam include Excited for Eid and Friday Fun.
