Muslim Holidays

Faith Winchester · 1996
68/100
👎 Skip It

For a 24-page 1996 library book, this does its intended job respectfully — the Capstone Press series was a trusted classroom staple and the treatment of Islamic holidays is factual and dignified. The age-appropriate vocabulary genuinely makes complex religious concepts accessible to young children, filling a real gap in elementary multicultural collections. It's dated, brief, and outpaced by newer resources, but as a used-library-sale find for a classroom shelf, it still holds up.
