Reviews
K-Gr 2—In this collection of nine brightly illustrated songs about Islam, one of the selections, "We've Scanned the Sky," is tied to a specific religious holiday (Ramadan). The rest, however, are more general in nature. The colorful artwork enhances the meaning of the songs. The diversity represented in the pictures (cultural, ethnic, etc.) is particularly appropriate. The book includes a glossary of most of the Arabic terms used; there is no complete glossary with pronunciation guides. This title fills a great need for children's books celebrating Islamic religious practice, and it does it nicely. A CD of the songs with percussion based accompaniment is included. It will be most appreciated by Muslim library patrons.—Kristin Anderson, Columbus Metropolitan Library System, OH
