Looking for the Eid Moon

Did you know that some religions base their celebrations on a Lunar schedule vs. a calendar date, and that there is a moon watch committee? When two young girls are on the moon watch committee, they are disappointed to find out they were not the first to find it. However, now celebrations and traditions can begin.

This was a very informative book. I did not know what an Eid Moon was. I really enjoyed learning about another culture and their traditions. I especially found the information in the back of the moon helpful to learn more about Muslins and their two celebrations of Eid. The pictures were very detailed and colored with a calming shades of blue, exactly what I would expect when looking to the sky to watch the moon.
