"Glowing, textured illustrations using gently rounded lines show a
family engaged in holiday activities: spending time together,
waiting for their day-long fast to end, preparing food, visiting
relatives, attending services at a mosque. A worthy addition to any
children's library."--The Horn Book Guide
"In a series of satisfying scenes with glowing colors and rounded
forms, the artwork, apparently done in pastels, warmly depicts a
family's activities at home and at the mosque...A handsome,
family-centered Ramadan picture book for young
children."--Booklist
"Muslim parents will enjoy reading the simple text and talking
about the pictures with their young children. Other parents and
children may come to understand the customs of neighbors and
friends."--Children's Literature
"This delightful picture book describes the month long Muslim
observance of Ramadan by a modern family...The repetitive line
"under the moon..." also makes this an excellent resource for
teachers and librarians for choral reading and discussion."--School
Library Journal
