Reader’s Review

The highlight of this picture books that teaches shapes through common Muslim objects is certainly the gorgeous illustrations that show illustrations from around the Muslim world. Similar in style to the the other book in the series: Gold Domes and Silver Lanterns.

To look out for

  • Islamic Values: One of the pages shows festivities with singing and a circle daff.
