Moon Watchers: Shirin's Ramadan Miracle

32 pp. | Tilbury | June, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-88448-321-2 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Anne Sibley O'Brien. Squabbling siblings Ali and Shirin come to an accord during the course of the month-long Muslim holiday. Though the story's overly instructive tone can be irritating, libraries wanting to widen their picture book holdings about Muslim holidays may welcome this title. The illustrations show a multi-generational American family's celebration of this important festival.
