Description:
1 volume (unpaged) : colour illustrations ; 23 x 26 cm.
Summary:
Crescent Moon Friends introduces the reader to two best friends Amelia and Aisha. While the pair is from
Canada
and Afghanistan, the girls reconcile their differences through exploration of the values they share. This book initiates a family conversation about Islam, explores tradition and language, and brings the girls closer together as a result. It is our hope that the book will be used as a teaching tool to help children understand the cultural backgrounds of others, and to create a warm environment for refugees resettling in Atlantic
Canada
from the Middle East. This picture book is for both non-Muslims who are living in the West, and Muslims who are living outside their home countries. The focus of the book is on tradition, not religion; it also captures the significance of Islam.
