"All the excitement of Eid, seen through the eyes of a friendly little cat"
All of little cat Nylah’s friends are busy it seems – tidying and cleaning, putting up decorations, cooking special dishes, wrapping presents. She’d love to be involved but they all – kindly – shoo her away, ‘We don’t have time to play now.’
Next morning everyone is up early and now Nylah understands what all the business has been for: it’s Eid!
This is a lovely book to celebrate Eid. The text, with its repetition is perfect to read aloud and the illustrations full of warmth and family detail. For children who know all about it, the story is a great way to enjoy all the build up and anticipation, especially if they feel a bit like Nylah as everyone gets on with the preparations; those who aren’t familiar with it will love finding out more, and Nylah’s company and cat’s-eye view is perfect for both.
A special book that celebrates all the joy and excitement of a special occasion.
A heartwarming tale of community celebration and preparations for Eid al-Fitr, seen through the eyes of a curious cat!
