Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
K-Gr 4—A girl describes the wave of excitement that spreads across the world when the Ramadan Moon is seen. She explains what happens throughout the month as people pray in mosques and listen to imams read verses from the Qur'an. The days are filled with good deeds, charitable offerings, caring, and politeness. The child tells readers that the greatest part of Ramadan is the Night of Power, a time of penitence, worship, and making wishes. The final days are counted for the coming of Eid-ul-Fitr. The story ends with the child sitting on a windowsill looking at the Moon and saying, "Please hurry back, my silver friend,/My beautiful Ramadan Moon." Robert's poetic style is captivating and enhanced by Adl's appealing and colorful multimedia illustrations. Throughout the story, the artist depicts the Moon, showing its waxing and waning phases as a family is seen worshipping and rejoicing.—Fawzia Gilani-Williams, An-Noor School, Windsor, Ontario
Kirkus Reviews
Bright collage highlights this reflection on the meaning and practice of Ramadan. Narrating in the first person, a girl explains that Ramadan's timing depends on the moon. She describes the month-long holiday's religious rituals-praying at home and at mosques, fasting-and the good deeds that go alongside, such as collecting for charity. Connection between outer practice and inner feeling is profound but child-accessible: "In daylight, we feel hungry, / But at sunset, when we eat, / It makes us a little thoughtful, / A little humble, / And very grateful." The vivid fabrics (calico, denim, solids with visible woven threads) and papers (crinkled, corrugated, metallic) collaged as walls, roofs, skies and clothing convey a pleasurable, nearly palpable sense of texture. The narrator and her family are generic, sporting ubiquitous tiny smiles, but the collage materials engage plenty of visual interest, and this family's lack of specific personality places the focus on Ramadan and all the celebrating "Muslims of every nation, / Of every age and hue." Suitable for readers familiar and unfamiliar with Ramadan. (Picture book/religion. 4-7)
