When Ramadan ends, join Raya and her extended family in a magical Eid celebration filled with games, gifts, and delicious food. Raya invites readers into her home and family, offering a first-hand experience of this special celebration through an authentic narrative non-fiction story.

Following the story is a fun, 16-page "factivity" section that provides more details on how Ramadan is observed and how Eid al-Fitr is celebrated. This section includes exciting activities such as making a pop-up Ramadan card and a recipe for delicious Ramadan cookies.

  • The Suhoor and Iftar meals
  • Preparations for the festival of breaking the fast - Eid al-Fitr
  • The significance of the crescent moon
  • The tasty food, gifts, and games that are enjoyed
  • ... and more!

In the Celebrations & Festivals series, you are invited into a family's celebrations, exploring the magic and excitement of religious festivals around the world.
