For Eid Al Fitr we are reading a lovely - just rolled off the presses - picture book: A Most Exiting Eid. The book is written by the Indian author Zeba Talkhani, who is now living in the UK.
She has written many books but this picture book is her debut as a children's book author. The sweet, colourful and hip illustrations are made by Aheeba Tariq, a Pakistani-Irish illustrator who now also lives in the UK.
All parts of the Eid celebration are highlighted in a beautiful way, you can read how important but also how much fun this feast is for Muslim children. A pleasure to read! It really appeals to the age group, because the similarities are recognizable to them. Warmly recommended, this book!
