NOTES

George celebrates Ramadan with his friend Kareem. "A groundbreaking new book that also tries to span the cultural chasm for a new generation." -The New Yorker George helps Kareem with his first fast and joins in the evening celebration of tasting treats and enjoying a special meal. Then George helps make gift baskets to donate to the needy, and watches for the crescent moon with the man in the yellow hat. Finally, George joins in the Eid festivities to mark the end of his very first Ramadan. This playful book makes a great holiday gift for all fans of Curious George-those who celebrate Ramadan, and those who are learning about it for the first time. "To help overcome Islamophobia and foster mutual respect, acceptance and understanding, teachers, parents, community leaders and librarians can use books like these to educate children about Muslims while enhancing religious literacy." -The Huffington Post "I hope [this book] makes it into the hands of Muslim children who need it and any child curious about Ramadan and Islam. Parents, this is how we teach love." -Read It Real Good
