Book Overview

Maymoona's Moon is a heartwarming picture book about the end of Ramadan, and waiting for Eid to begin. Written by Razeena Omar Guta and illustrated by beloved Muslim illustrator Zayneb Haleem (@idotdoodle), readers aged 3 to 8 years will feel the anticipation around the end of Ramadan - the hullabaloo is contagious!

In this gorgeous story about anticipation, celebration and tradition, a young girl called Maymoona - self-proclaimed future astronaut - cleverly finds a way to be the first to see the crescent moon in the sky, and to announce that Eid has begun!

Eid-al-Fitr is a joyous time of year for Muslims, and marks the end to Ramadan, a holy month of fasting, praying and deep spirituality - so the build-up to Eid is exciting and exuberant. Families come together to celebrate with delicious feasts and gifts, but sighting the crescent moon is the first sign that Eid can begin.

This beautiful picture book is perfect for readers aged 2 years and up, as well as anyone who's ever looked up into the evening sky and delighted in the moon.
