Join a young girl and her family in this Step 2 reader as they celebrate Eid-al-fitr, a holiday that marks the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. Perfect for readers ages 4-6.
It's Eid-al-fitr—the last day of Ramadan, which means it is the last day for Rabia to fast with the rest of her family and she has never done it before. Rabia is so excited! She eats just before sunrise and then the day of fasting begins! Rabia gets to have her hands painted with henna, wear a new dress, and put her family's donation in the box at the mosque. It's a special Eid all around!
Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories, for children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.

      PreS-Gr 1-Rabia, a young girl with tan skin, wants to experience Eid just like the rest of her family, even though her sister says she is "too little" to fast. When she goes with her family into the kitchen to eat cereal and drink water in preparation, Dad agrees that she can fast for half a day. Her family helps Rabia make it through half the fast, shares henna, and teaches her how to put money in the Fitr box for the poor. Khan explains Eid in a child-friendly manner, and grown-ups, too, will learn from her words. Rahmalia's bright and cheery illustrations beautifully capture the cultural aspects of Eid. VERDICT A jaunty exploration of Eid and the holiday's cultural implications for young children.-Brittany Morgan
